Liberty Wharf
Adams Design worked with the Cresset Group to develop the identity for Liberty Wharf. Building on a vision that began in 2002 with the Doulos family and Massport, we created a flexible system of signage and placemaking elements that unify the site and express its connection to the harbor.
One Harbor Shore
Our work on One Harbor Shore has been about bringing Boston’s last waterfront opportunity on Fan Pier to life in a way that truly stands apart. We’ve focused on highlighting its extraordinary light, breathtaking views, and reputation for excellence, while crafting a story that embodies a confident, welcoming, and relaxed lifestyle. This project is the pinnacle of Seaport living—offering unparalleled service, iconic views, and a one-of-a-kind location—and we’re proud to have shaped its narrative as the final chapter in this iconic waterfront.
One Dalton Four Seasons
Innovative. Remarkable. Unique. One Dalton is the acclaimed capstone of the late Henry N. Cobb’s illustrious career.
It is Boston’s tallest residential building, rising 742’ above the city with 61 floors of luxury floating above a world-renowned hotel.
Gaila
Gaila is a Hingham-based nonprofit that manufactures and sells the regal headdress and offers a free one to every woman who has lost her hair because of illness. The name Gaila is a play on three words: gala, gele (the Nigerian head wrap on which the Gaila is modeled) and Gail, the Milton professor of international business who designed the prototype to give as gifts to fellow cancer patients.
The Cape Club
We were asked to create a brand identity for a proposed mixed-use golf community
on Cape Cod consisting of townhomes, single family homes, a golf club for residents as well
as a state-of-the-art golf course.
Calda Vita
Calda Vita is a luxury brand of handmade organic soaps. Adams Design Boston created the name, logo and identity, inspired by the Italian phrase meaning “warmth and life,” to express natural luxury, artisanal craft and timeless simplicity.
One Exeter Plaza
Located in Boston’s Back Bay, One Exeter Plaza is a Class A office tower with strong architectural presence and a prime address. Despite its stature, the building lacked a cohesive brand identity that reflected its quality and position within a highly competitive commercial leasing market. Existing materials felt dated and understated, offering little street-level impact and failing to convey the experience of the building to prospective tenants.
Featherwinds
Featherwinds is a new 55+ condominium community in Halifax, designed for active seniors seeking ease, comfort, and connection. Surrounded by nature yet close to everyday conveniences, the development needed a brand identity that felt uplifting, modern, and deeply rooted in a sense of home. Our task was to create a visual and verbal experience that would resonate with empty nesters ready to simplify life—without leaving behind friends, family, or the familiarity of the South Shore.
Emma Guardia
The Emma Guardia Team pairs a savvy and experienced Cambridge realtor with an energetic go-getter Millennial with now-generation skills…the perfect combination for a fresh branding approach that encompassed a print advertising and bus shelters.
Larkwood
Set along a river and framed by woodlands, Larkwood offered the rare chance to brand a community where nature is truly part of daily life. Designed for young families and residents from surrounding towns, the identity needed to feel modern, welcoming, and reflective of the easy, connected lifestyle this developer is known for creating.
Vela Seaport
The heavens are filled with stars and stories, like the constellation Vela and the tale of Jason and the Argonauts. Named for the sails of their ship, Vela invites you to imagine a journey of adventure through the night sky—just as the restaurant invites you to experience different cultures and cuisines from your table by the sea. Brought to life by our design agency in Boston, Vela is many things—elegant yet easy, sophisticated yet surprising.
