PRINT // 2010 Muse and the Marketplace

My annual contribution to the Grub Street spring conference, Muse and the Marketplace, is the graphic identity of the event featured on postcards and in ads on the MBTA. This year, the keynote speaker is Chuck Palahniuk whose book covers and style are quite iconic and inspired a gritty, yet elegant design. The concept: death of the printed book.

Muse and the Marketplace

This year I was presented with the opportunity to once more donate my efforts to the nonprofit writers organization, Grub Street. Muse and the Marketplace is their annual conference that helps blossoming writers connect with professionals in the writing and publishing worlds. My task: Create a fresh and exciting design that captured the spirit of the conference. My inspiration: Saul Bass.
