Miami Project is a popular art fair that runs during Art Basel week in Miami every December. The fifth edition was taking a different direction in terms of concept and execution so a total rebrand was in order to distinguish it both from its previous iterations and the many competing fairs that exhibit during Art Basel. The brand's original concept was extremely modern and minimalist, intended to complement the outrageous angular architecture and horizontal lines of 1111 Lincoln Road (the famed carpark designed by Herzog & de Meuron). When the venue was suddenly changed to the much more somber 6625 Indian Creek Drive, I began integrating more diverse and colorful exhibitor artwork into the campaign to add interest and whimsy to the sparse but elegant branding.
I had the privilege of designing this fair from top to bottom, from the rebranding effort to the staff tee shirts.
