Adam Sage

Originally from Kent, Adam Sage has been tattooing in Brighton for over 20 years, with a career that has included work at renowned studios such as Temple Tattoo, Into You Tattoo London, and 1770 Tattoo.

Adam specialises in non-electric (hand-poked) tattooing—a deliberate, intimate approach that reflects his inspirations in brutalist architecture, children’s book illustration, Soviet poster design, and traditional printmaking. His tattoos are celebrated for their smooth, precise linework, strong graphic structure, and timeless simplicity.

He is also a resident artist at Old Habits Tattoo in London.
