Adamastor!

"Oh, Cruel Adamastor!"

New identity for our illustration studio, inspired by the legendary sea creature that haunted the most primal fears of the portuguese Navigators, during the Age of Discovery throughout the world!

"Even as I spoke, an immense shape
Materialised in the night air,
Grotesque and enormous stature
With heavy jowls, and an unkempt beard
Scowling from shrunken, hollow eyes
Its complexion earthy and pale,
Its hair grizzled and matted with clay,
Its mouth coal black, teeth yellow with decay."

— From "Lusíadas", the epic poem about the Portuguese Discoveries, by Luís Vaz de Camões.
