Maria Adelaide identity

Branding and web design for Maria Adelaide, a creative coding and web development collective (and clooose collaborators of OOO). MA’s name references an eponymous 19th-century folk saint whose incorrupt corpse was said to smell strongly of roses. In a winking nod to this association, we developed a colorful 8-bit-like monogram that evokes stained glass windows, as well as a complementing rose icon.

Patterns built from these elements are present throughout the studio’s visual identity—serving as borders on the MA portfolio website and backgrounds for Instagram posts and stories.
