A Guide to Miami for Designers — by designers
To welcome MAX attendees to Miami Beach and make it easy to experience the best of this vibrant city, we’re proud to introduce A Guide to Miami for Designers, brought to you by Miami Design(ers). When you’re looking for what to eat, drink, see, and do around town, turn to this easy-to-use, thoughtfully curated guide for all the answers.
Adriana Tamayo, Adobe ambassador and founder of Design Subtropic, and designer Andrea Marquez teamed up to form Miami Design(ers). They describe this project as their love letter to Miami — their passion for The Magic City is contagious.
“We had the idea of creating a retro guide that captures a nineties vibe while ensuring a great mobile experience.” They shared a behind the scenes look at how the project came together, from the story behind the bright, playful color palette to some of the methods and Adobe tools used to bring the guide to life.
“Collaboration is everything to us. We believe when Miami’s designers come together, we create something magical. This project is a celebration of that community spirit, and we can’t wait for you to experience the best of Miami, through our eyes — with all the flavor, culture, and creativity this city brings!”
The best travel experiences happen with insider recommendations. And with the Guide to Miami for Designers, attendees will feel like they’re exploring the city with personal tour guides. There’s so much to see and do — start your morning at a specialty coffee roaster or grab a pastry at a kosher bakery. Free for dinner? Check out an Aegean bistro in the design district or Thai tapas in Little Havana. Spend free time between sessions at an independent book or record store, then pick up gifts and souvenirs at a marketplace showcasing local artists and craftspeople. Make time for one of Miami’s world-renowned museums. And don’t leave town without a stroll on South Beach or through the Art Deco District.
