A look back at our favorite projects of 2021

A few of our projects this year enabled us to do a little time traveling. First, back to the prehistoric, designing a catalog for the Natural History Museum of Denmark about the T. Rex named Tristan Otto. Then we crowned ourselves with a 700 AD Wari hat for The Springfield Museums exhibition The Body Adorned. For our summer adventure, we crossed the pond for the beautiful work of British printmakers from World War I to World War II for the Met Museum’s Modern Times catalog.

It was also a year of first opportunities—as a co-curator on the On Solitude exhibition for the Princeton School of Architecture—and producing an e-pub for Amherst College on their bicentennial book, Eye | Mind | Heart. We wrapped up the year with a “hands on” approach for the Thinking with Things identity, symbolizing how our thoughts and our hands can bring active learning with physical materials into any teaching practice.

The Body Adorned brochure jacket is perforated to create a wearable Wari hat.
