The work of AdamsMorioka ranges from corporate identities, identity systems, print campaigns and environmental graphics for both interior and exterior, to motion and digital projects such as film and video, animation and websites. We begin each project by strategically creating a set of criteria, compiled by collaborating with our clients. We are very strict about quality, presentation and content, but, of course, there is always the AdamsMorioka touch of fun.

Crie um Label Vintage no Illustrator
Parece que nos últimos 3 anos aconteceu um grande boom de design retro, começando com a estética "cosmic neon lightning" dos anos 80 que até já nos cansou um pouco - não apenas por ter virado uma tendência mas porque qualquer pessoa com photoshop poderia fazer algo assim. Por outro lado a onde retro mais focado no design e ilustração dos anos 50 e 60 parece diferente, porquê? Pois a maioria das peças são desenhadas a mão, e quando falamos de desenho sabemos que nem todos os designers podem desenhar.
