An AIGA Seattle Thought Leadership Series
Join us at a different local studio each month for The Lunch Box. Break away from your desk to visit an amazing studio and listen to local design leaders present original perspectives that will inspire, shift or interrupt your relationship with the design space. After the presentation there will be a chance to ask questions and pick the brains of some of Seattle's brightest design minds.
This month's lunch will be hosted by Ben Graham and Steve Watson of Turnstyle. They'll discuss:

Tangible Type
Films about Type, Letterpress, and American Graphic Arts
Before computers and modern offset printing, reproducing words on paper required the touch of human hands. Watch two amazing documentaries – "Typeface" and "Linotype: The Film" – tell the story of how technology changed graphic design and publishing in the 19th and 20th century.
All proceeds from this event will be donated to the Hamilton Wood Type Museum, to help pay for the relocation of their historic wood type collection and antique letterpresses.

We’ll also talk about some of the varied possibilities in the design professions that they themselves have explored.
Doors open at 6:30PM, panel begins at 7PM. Limited parking is available.
