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.
Gallery 98 is an active online archive for curator Marc H. Miller’s collection of arts ephemera from the 1960s–1990s, centered around his long involvement in the New York art world. The collection catalogs thousands of items across announcement cards, posters, and publications connected through artists, galleries, nightclubs, and themes, while retaining the hand-built nature of Miller’s practice.
The Carnegie Museum of Art is the first museum in the United States dedicated to collecting art of its times. In other words, it’s the first museum dedicated to contemporary art. The website features an expressive typography forward approach which maintains its legibility through a robust and modular design system, and is reflected in its data model and backend user experience.
