DISTRIBUTED PROXIMITIES

A typographic identity for ACADIA’s 2020 conference, Distributed Proximities. The event utilizes complicated circumstances in order to view problems through a new lens, making the best of an unfamiliar situation in the spirit of innovation. In a similar light, this identity unifies unlike parts to reach a unique design solution. This reimagined conference identity was created as an exercise for my advanced typography class.
