Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

I’m extremely impressed with this con­cep­tual project by Vanessa Lam, a recent grad­u­ate of the Art Center College of Design. Her incred­i­bly thor­ough rebrand of The Center for Land Use Interpretation— “a research and edu­ca­tion orga­ni­za­tion ded­i­cated to under­stand­ing the man made land­scape through dif­fer­ent dis­ci­plines of geog­ra­phy, art, sci­ence, and archi­tec­ture” — includes an iden­tity sys­tem, var­i­ous print col­lat­eral, a web­site, iPhone app, exhi­bi­tion cat­a­log and envi­ron­men­tal graph­ics. And her inter­est­ing design solu­tion employs car­to­graphic pat­terns and graph­ics to cre­ate a flex­i­ble and inter­change­able iden­tity system.
