AIGA is a glob­al com­mu­ni­ty of design advo­cates and prac­ti­tion­ers. AIGA advances design as a pro­fes­sion­al craft, strate­gic advan­tage, and vital cul­tur­al force by con­nect­ing prac­ti­tion­ers, enthu­si­asts, and patrons through region­al, nation­al, and glob­al events.

APPROACH

COLLINS trans­formed the sto­ries of the twen­ty four AIGA medal­ists into a phys­i­cal arti­fact: a book that cel­e­brates the work and careers of the medal­ists. The theme of the pro­gram was Time—specifically the 100 years of the AIGA. The cov­er of the book, a ten-by-ten grid of dots, rep­re­sent­ed both the years of the AIGA and the moments each medal­ist began their design careers.
