Past Meets Present @ Brand Union

The past is ever-present in our lives and provides a counterpoint to current cultural norms. Though there are indicators of when and how an aesthetic movement might resurface, the internet is fueling real-time dissemination of information, ideas and design and has accelerated trend cycles. As a result, we’re seeing retro resurgences rise rapidly alongside the streamlining of our digital, cloud-based lives.

Join us for individual presentations and a multidisciplinary panel discussion to explore how the past is currently making itself present.

Speakers include:
Sam Becker, Executive Creative Director, Brand Union
Andrew Luecke, author, COOL: Style, Sound and Subversion
Paul Shaw, author, Revival Type: Digital Typefaces Inspired by the Past

Doors open at 6:30pm
Presentations begin at 7:00pm
Panel discussion and Q&A to follow
Wine and snacks

LOCATION
Brand Union
3 Columbus Circle
