Our very own Nathan Hill moderated the @aigadc EMERGE panel on Wednesday, October 3rd from 6:30-8:30pm. Hear local creatives share their stories and answer questions on how they got to where they are now.

SEGD Branded Environments 2019— held in partnership with Digital Signage Expo (DSE) 2019 — is the event for the design of brand-centric customer experiences. Integrating meaningful brand experiences into places and spaces provide the highest branding return on investment to owners and their users. Jill and Nathan gave a talk on creating a sense of culture in their design process with corporate and retail clients.

Each week, designers, artists, and other creatives from around the globe are invited to share personal stories of successes and challenges, giving listeners an authentic and uncensored look at their creative process and what drives them to create for the pure joy of it. 

This summer marked 50 years since Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. To commemorate the historic event, the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum launched its “Apollo At the Park” campaign and enlisted Spaeth Hill to design the new logo and branded package. The logo draws inspiration from vintage space and aeronautic campaigns, as well as the work of designers like Otl Aicher.

As we continue to celebrate DC Design Week, explore how graphic design can translate into furniture and spatial design with the partners at Spaeth Hill. Jill Spaeth and Nathan Hill share their creative journey from 2D design to their forward-thinking design-build practice. Guest will be able to take photos on iPad and and draw with Apple Pencil to reimagine furniture and space. 

From a customized desk to culinary-themed side tables, this is what design firm Spaeth Hill is bringing to Old Town.
