Mohawk Show 11 Finalist: Feed Forward Feedback
This book documents the long, strange trip of RISD’s 2009 graduating class, as the students grapple with the big questions of design. Here they have tried to create a “new taxonomy of work — based on methods and materials rather than department or discipline.” Furthermore >Destination GAIN: Where Stanley Hainsworth’s heading for (re)invention
[Stanley Hainsworth] When Kenna Kay and I were asked to co-chair the 2010 AIGA GAIN conference, we looked at ourselves and said, “As fellow designers let’s ensure this conference will be something people will anticipate with excitement, experience irresistibly, and walk away from inspired, motivated and determined to make some changes.” Furthermore >Step inside the studio of designer Keith Scharwath & writer Alissa Walker
[Alissa Walker & Keith Scharwath] Our Los Angeles studio doesn’t have a name or its own letterhead, but it’s unique because it’s occupied by two people who live together and happen to do complementary things: Alissa is a design writer and Keith is a graphic artist and art director. So we don’t necessarily work together, it’s more like we work alongside each other. It’s nice to have someone just over your shoulder to ask how to phrase something or get feedback on color choices from someone who understands what you’re talking about. We are definitely inspired and influenced by what the other person is working on. Sometimes we update our Twitter accounts about the same things simultaneously.

The Blackstone Hotel lavishes elegant design on its guests with this extensive set of communication materials. The door tags are especially witty with their minimalist Y and N substituting for “do not disturb.” Furthermore >Small-but-mighty Smart & Wiley: Renewing the past with timeless design
Drawing inspiration from their collection of 19th and 20th century wood and metal type, borders, ornaments and printing presses, Smart & Wiley crafts fine contemporary print goods with a wink and a nod to the past. Furthermore > |
