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. Conceived as a reader rather than a direct documentation of the exhibition, conversations with the artists and supporting artwork are gathered in a compact paperback, with its construction and materials gesturing toward the streets of Los Angeles.
BeHere / 1942 is the companion book to media artist Masaki Fujihata’s project and exhibition at the Japanese American National Museum reframing the historic forced incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II through photographic detective work and re-examination through augmented reality. This volume contains a variety of contributions each of which engages with the history of the incarceration and its representation in photographs and exhibitions.
