Another year, another banger of a Halloween runway. CD&S students brought the tricks and the treats. Big ups to the winners that included Colonel Sanders, Elizabeth Holmes, King of Hearts, Ostrich, SpongeBob cast, Karate Kid and Goldilocks and the Fat Bear. You all are truly too ghoul for school.

Today, our Professional Studio Practice class traveled down Woodward to visit Pophouse, a design studio focused on creating informed, curated, and human-centered spaces.

Hosted by Jon Moses (GD ’07), Design Director of Experiential Design, students toured the studio and explored how graphic design and interior design intersect to create immersive, experiential spaces. Jon also shared his career journey and how his early interests led him to designing environments that tell stories.

A great visit with a great studio. Thanks, Jon!

Earlier this week, 2014 Communication Design alumna Fatema Bowala visited our Professional Studio Practices class as a guest lecturer.

Fatema shared her professional journey with students, from graduate studies in public health to earning her BFA in Communication Design and pursuing impact-driven work in the nonprofit sector. Her insights on purpose-driven design, work-life balance, and building a career around meaningful work were a great reminder of the possibilities that come with hard work and determination.

Thank you, Fatema, for sharing your story and inspiring the next generation of designers!

What an incredible turnout for our first CD&S student meeting! Faculty and students came together to connect and share tacos to kick off the new year.

Big thanks to our guests Heather Barnhart, Tom Hicks, and Glen Morren for joining us, and to all the student groups we got to know. We wrapped up the meeting by raffling off CD&S swag and classic typography books.

Thank you to everyone who made our lunch launch a success!
