Folder designs interfaces, publications, and systems for organizing, encountering, and carrying information forward. We help museums, universities, civic institutions, and others engaged in the stewardship and sharing of knowledge create ways for language, media, and material to surface and endure.
We are interested in what happens to information over time, and how form can reveal the connections that give it meaning. Projects come in a variety of configurations rooted in partnerships that honor the material and its strategic presentation.
Made in L.A. 2025 is the catalog for the Hammer Museum’s seventh iteration of its signature showcase for Los Angeles contemporary art, spotlighting emerging and under-recognized local practitioners.

X-TRA Contemporary Art Journal, the longest running LA art journal, ended its run in Spring 2024 after 26 years of publishing. The website houses a complete catalog of essays, reviews, interviews, and artist projects into a reading environment organized by issue, contributor, and series. Built to support ongoing publishing alongside the back catalogue, it continues as a free archive following the journal’s closure.
Website for X-TRA, the Los Angeles–based contemporary art quarterly. Hosts an eighteen-year archive of print issues, reviews, and artist writings. The site was later redesigned by the studio in 2018.
