Stencilin’
If there is one motto to live by in the design industry it should be that when everything else fails, make a stencil. Not implying that everything else failed in these two posters, rather they point to how awesome stencil always looks.

Lost in Translation: Fuzz vs. Fuck
Having fun with language — whether outright expletives or more subtle allusions — is part of Gail’s and Robynne’s talents that can be applied to both work and social conversation. Here we have two vastly different applications: On top is Robynne Raye’s contribution to the 2005 Hurricane Poster Project, which is self explanatory; and below it is Gail’s campaign for Avenue Q, the Sesame Street inspired Broadway musical not suitable for children. Aside from fun with words what these two posters have in common that the subject matter of both is, in the end, about puppets.

OA’08: Gail Anderson • Robynne Raye
The fourth, and final, event in the inaugural season of the Opposites Attract series brings together Gail Anderson and Robynne Raye, two designers with a range of work that, in spirit, is endlessly adventurous, entertainingly boisterous, and disarmingly witty — all with decidedly opposite results. As they share their work and talk about their background in a moderated discussion, we presume the differences and similarities will quickly be apparent.
