Revamping for modern context and relevance.

Each year, SCAD’s Graphic Design department hosts a student conference featuring workshops, talks, and competitions. With the last couple conferences being mainly virtual due to COVID, the the department wanted to revive the event’s spirit—bringing back community, energy, and inspiration. We redefined the experience with a typographic identity that is energetic and sprawling–representing spreading ideas, having conversations, and optimistic for the future.
