Your first look at the Adobe Virtual Gallery
As the tools and tech to create interactive, digital experiences grow, we continue to look for opportunities to make the digital world something everyone can enjoy, participate in and benefit from.
Welcome to the Adobe Virtual Gallery, a colourful and immersive 3D experience built and designed by concept and character designer Pablo Gomez and web designer Jorge Valle.
Take to the virtual world and explore a range of curated artworks from 29 talented artists and creators across Asia Pacific through this three-dimensional gallery.
Behind the scenes
Pablo and Jorge designed the Virtual Gallery using the Adobe and Adobe MAX logos aesthetically and symbolically to help users move through the space.
Want to move from one room to another? Look for a doorway shaped like the Adobe 'A' and walk on through, or take a walk around rooms inspired by the shape of the MAX logo.
“What we wanted to do was make it easier for anyone to have the same experience and this is why we went with a web app,” Pablo said.
“This way it's inclusive and anyone can access from tablet, desktop. You can go at your own pace, just like you would a real gallery. You have control of your own experience.”
