DesignThinkers - Speak the Truth
Zulu Alpha Kilo
GoldDesign - Brochures/Print Collateral
GoldDesign - Promotion
SilverDesign - Corporate Identity
Design an identity for a design conference? Daunting task.“Speak the Truth” stepped away from logos and complex colour palettes to focus on something a bit simpler: the black-and-white truth, as presented on posters in a bold typeface. Each element highlighted a “truth,” such as “1% of you will read this. 99% will just judge our typeface choice.” Other posters highlighted the “real truths” behind often-heard phrases (“Sounds like a great opportunity” can really mean “Sounds like I’m not getting paid”). The idea expanded to cover conference materials, such as “The beautifully designed T-shirt you’ll never wear again.” RGD and Zulu even produced promo videos where prominent designers were given lie detector tests.
