Founding Stories
Atlanta has a long and colorful history of DIY spaces, reaching back to at least 1970s – it says a lot about a community that so wholly encourages creatives to take their own destiny in-hand and create a space for folks like them.
I worked with Art Papers to develop the branding for an event that celebrates and takes a closer look at these spaces, decade-by-decade. We created a look and feel that references band posters and risograph (an easy hat for me to wear, as a punk teen in a past life). I loved spending a few afternoons just listening to my old favorite music and drawing with Sharpie until it made me dizzy, and then figuring out to represent and reproduce the beautiful imperfections created by risograph printing methods.
