No matter the outcome of today’s election, staying engaged and informed about the legal issues shaping our democracy is more important than ever. Campaign Legal Center’s "Democracy Decoded" podcast is a valuable resource for curious listeners seeking to better understand the rule of law, the threats it faces, and the growing disregard for our Constitution.

We recently partnered with CLC to refresh the podcast’s visual identity, including its cover art. The design features stars and stripes that reveal the podcast’s title, reflecting its mission to break down complex, pressing legal issues and make their impact on our democracy more accessible. A bolder look and a darker color palette underscore the urgency of these conversations.

You can find new weekly episodes of Democracy Decoded wherever you get your podcasts. Tune in!

This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we’re reflecting on the power of imagination, not only to envision the future but also to shape the work of building it.

N. Scott Momaday’s words remind us that imagination is fundamental to how we understand ourselves and our place in the world. The futures we imagine can serve as a starting point for the futures we work to create.

As social impact designers, we believe in the power of that process: imagining a more equitable, connected, and inclusive world, then using creativity and design to move that vision from possibility to reality. The work continually asks: What could the future look like, and what can we do today to build the best version of what we imagine?

Today, we honor Indigenous peoples, whose communities, cultures, knowledge, and visions for the future continue to shape the world around us.

“We are what we imagine. Our very existence consists in our imagination of ourselves. The greatest tragedy that can befall us is to go unimagined.” —N. Scott Momaday

We recently collaborated with Ørsted to create a 16-page coloring book that introduces young audiences to how renewable energy powers communities across America.

Designed for multiple uses, the booklet can be split into individual coloring sheets, giving Ørsted the flexibility to invite kids to engage with content most relevant to their communities or to use it as a larger, connected experience.

Each illustrated scene pairs a coloring activity with accessible information about Ørsted’s projects and technologies, inviting kids to discover and learn how renewable energy is generated and how it benefits communities nationwide.

By combining hands-on interaction with storytelling and education, the coloring book makes the complex world of renewable energy tangible, approachable, and fun.

We’re thrilled to unveil our latest collaboration with : the artwork for their 2026–27 season! This marks our fourth year developing TWC’s season poster series. Each year, we explore the themes behind the performances and translate the music, ideas, and spirit into a visual language that invites reflection and connection.

This year’s lineup:

Requiem and Renewal is a meditation on the soul, the sacred, and the unknown. The poster features a human silhouette emerging from swirling textures and a nebulous, celestial sky, evoking the depth of the human spirit and questions that extend beyond life.

A Song Flung Up to Heaven is an ode to resilience, transformation, and Washington, D.C.’s vibrant artistic community. Judy Bowman’s When the Cagebird Sings takes center stage in the poster, integrated into TWC’s signature poster frame and layered with collage-inspired ribbons.

Candlelight Christmas, the beloved DMV tradition, celebrates the musical and cultural spirit of our community. This year’s artwork introduces new local landmarks—including Howard University’s Founders Library clock tower—and incorporates two candles representing the Howard University students featured in the performances.

While the three concerts don’t share a single theme, the posters share TWC’s signature balance of tradition and innovation, exploring ideas of connection, unity, and hope. Textures appear throughout the series, grounding these intangible ideas in something physical while creating a visual thread across all three posters. We’re grateful to continue this collaboration and bring another season of music to life through design.

The Makerspace —a 20,000-square-foot facility dedicated to transforming education for students in Washington, DC—recently brought us on to design their donor wall.

Designed to capture the space's energy and creativity, and inspired by foundational building blocks, the wall features dimensional shapes to highlight each donor tier. Dimensional lettering, mixed materials, and tool doodles nod to the space’s hands-on qualities. Colorful phrases were also fitted on I-beams adjacent to the wall, thanking donors and welcoming students from all angles.

After a whirlwind summer, our DC crew finally reunited to celebrate Shannon and Ambica’s summer birthdays!

We marked the occasion with a delicious lunch, plenty of yummy pastries, and a visit to a new public art exhibit raising awareness of conservation efforts through interactive sculptures of endangered animals.

It was energizing to be back together, catch up, celebrate, and get inspired, leaving us fully recharged for an afternoon of client calls and deadlines!

Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce recently published a report examining “springboard” middle-skills occupations, which are jobs accessible with an associate’s degree or certificate and can lead to high earnings and wage growth. “Springboard to Opportunity” reports credential shortages across the country and explores opportunities to connect students to education pathways and credentials, and to connect employees to meet demand.

We supported the report content with custom data visualizations and conceptual illustrations, including a dynamic cover depicting a student sprinting down a runway and vaulting toward coins representing the opportunities these careers can offer.

Inside, we drew inspiration from the technical reports and blueprints associated with many of the featured fields, using bold color accents and section dividers to bring energy and structure to the data.
