Adam Roth, Principal
___
Adam began his career with an invaluable position at The Martin Agency’s satellite office in Charlotte, working as an art director under John Boone & David Oakley. The two executives left the agency and formed their own small creative shop, BooneOakley. It was while working there that Adam once threw a dummy off the roof of the Turner Network Television building during a pitch given to the TNT marketing team (TNT "We Know Drama” was their slogan).
As late-night side gigs, Adam spent time in the DIY music scene playing bass for various indie bands, as well as pursuing his love for graphic design. By 2003 his design work flourished into a full-time business, and Adam Roth Design Inc. was launched.
Today, the studio specializes in building brand identities for a wide range of clients. From logos to environmental graphics, packaging to collateral, Adam leads hand-picked, creatively experienced teams in the discovery of each client’s brand essence. His work has been recognized by numerous award shows and led him to develop creative materials for the host committee at the 2012 Democratic National Convention.
When he’s not designing stuff he can be found hanging out with his two daughters, listening to records or seeking inspiration through travel. On rare occasion, he can still be seen and heard unleashing his creativity on stage with a bass guitar in hand.
