Open Sessions is a two year residency program by The Drawing Center that provides opportunities for selected artists to find new approaches for contextualizing and exhibiting their work through conversation, public programs, and gallery installations. The group is made up not only of visual artists, it also includes architects, urban planners, sound artists, and dancers—anyone who is interested in what drawing might mean to their own practice and through process.
At Typography Summer School, we were tasked to design an identity for Open Sessions and explore how it can be applied to various deliverables for The Drawing Center’s platform. The work above is my proposal during the workshop.

I worked with the team to rebrand the digital music service—Spotify. Our team was challenged to shift Spotify from a tech company to an entertainment company. The strategy was to “make music personal—again.” The team realized that music makes people burst with emotion—we laugh, we cry, cheer, dance, shout. This brand identity system aimed to be the visual corollary to this “bursting” experience. We also designed a co-creative aspect into the system to enable Spotify to collaborate with artists.
