Publicness: 2023-2024 HCOA Lecture Series

A poster clipped to a tripod with a yellow wall background. Poster is from the opAL lecture, feature the two architects that principal the firm and a graphic of their work.

The theme for the 23-24 academic year's lecture series was Publicness. Some initial misunderstanding led to the design taking on a Memphis style, and my love for this style made sure the theme stayed.

The designs grew in volume as time went on. Early designs incorporated the main off-white background, but the Spring lectures started using imagery for background effects. The main elements were the color shapes and these are repeated in print and digital graphics.

The scale of the Lecture Series means there's plenty of collateral to design. Window and digital signage, website graphics, and posters: there was more than enough to explore aesthetics.

The main poster for Spring 24 was featured in Archinet's Get Lectured series.
