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.
VIDEO // Fight poverty. Prevent disasters.
Two months after the Haiti earthquake, we took time to ponder what made the impact of that disaster so devastating, particularly in the wake of the Chilean earthquake. In this video we explore what happened and why.
VIDEO // From Congo with Love
The photographer, Rankin, took his second trip to the Democratic Republic of Congo in 2009 to capture a series of portraits on the theme of love, in the war-torn country. This video is a compilation of some of those images and stories, with music from the first individual pictured.

Répondez S'il Vous Plaît
It was a summer of invitations—weddings and events alike. Some of my favorite projects to do; each occasion is unique and the design approach fresh and exciting. Here are a few of my favorites.
The Boston Initiative to Advance Human Rights, "The Playground" Fundraiser
"The Playground" is a documentary that unveils the alarming sex trade and trafficking of children right here in the US. The event, a film-screening fundraiser held at the ICA Boston, called for a simple, modern design that subtly suggests the subject manner.
Keryn & Kevin's wedding invitationKeryn & Kevin have a very special connection to their invitations—the lighthouse featured in the background is where they were engaged. A simple, elegant, late summer wedding on a boat out on the water in Boston Harbor, the invitations picked up the soft blues and silver (in the way of envelopes) of their color scheme.
Ashley & Maura's wedding invitation
Ashley and Maura were inspired by their fall wedding on Cape Cod—cranberry harvesting season. They were both drawn to a simple, pop-art inspired aesthetic which, led to this abstract interpretation of cranberries floating on the surface of a bog.
