Typography
Neutra, designed by Christian Schwartz for House Industries
Handwriting by Christopher Samms & Christopher Kroeker
Hand-drawn type and illustrations accomplish everything Clark + Huot set out to do. These party elements are friendly, inviting, accessible, and even inspiring—something about well-made, hand-rendered designs makes you think “I could do that!” and then maybe you actually will.
The intention of the Pass It On creative was to elicit some excitement in, as well as give something back to the creative community. We wanted people to see Clark + Huot as more accessible and open by inviting inventive individuals in to our office to connect with each other in a less formal environment, which is what fed the concept: all things that are Clark + Huot and in the creative realm put out on display for people to absorb what interests them and pass it on.
