In this far-ranging talk, design expert Leland Maschmeyer lays out his vision for brand building as the practice of contemporary myth-making. Starting with humanity’s ability to create visual and conceptual meaning, Leland dives into a variety of primal “’patterns”—the seven deadly sins, the redemption arc, Batman—illustrating how these patterns show up again and again throughout human history, each time activated through new forms and methods. The lecture concludes with two case studies in transformative rebrand projects—Naturalist and Chobani—which strive to tap into these core patterns and leave a lasting impact not just on the respective companies and industries, but on our shared imagination as a whole.
