Tape/Trail

Scott Ponik and I were Walker Design Fellows from fall 2004 through fall 2006. When asked to stay on for an additional year [amidst the grand-(re)opening of the Walker expansion in 2005] we were left with a print budget from what would have been the 2005–2006 Design Fellowship poster (someone at some point will post these in the Flat File section, hint hint). In lieu of the poster we were asked to design a promo announcing the Walker’s new graphic identity: Walker Expanded. One late-night brainstorming session found us re-aligning the “strips of tape”–from the recent print collateral–along the walkways of the (temporary) Walker offices. The assemblage ended at Andrews office door and the real-life sketch was later re-enacted for its printed (and more mailable) form.
