STEP INSIDE
As Tiffany Meyers observes in her overview of the 100 winners, one can’t peg 2009 as the year of any specific color or typographic convention. But the winning projects are reflective of today’s increasingly diverse design discipline. In fact, one has to wonder if there is any longer such a thing as a design discipline—in light of today’s fast-changing and even amorphous practice, the word discipline seems a little out of place.

STEP Design 100 Annual 2007: Catalogs (cont'd)

17 AUFULDISH & WARINNER
As a catalog, RADAR: Selections From the Collection of Vicki and Kent Logan, is itself a work of art in an elegant, translucent slipcase, companion to the exhibition in the Anschutz Gallery of the Denver Art Museum. The curators, explains designer Bob Aufuldish, “chose RADAR as the title as a way to describe the Logans’ collecting vision.” The exhibit itself, as stated in the catalog, “highlights their uncanny ability to put their fingers on the pulse of what’s happening in art all over the world.”

Each step of the way, Aufuldish worked directly with the museum’s curatorial team. Their articulate reasoning behind the choice of the title, RADAR, led to many of the ideas he used in the project’s design, from the choice of cover image to the choice of typefaces. To a designer who often builds a project out from typeface selections, this one was especially interesting in its use of type as a subtle reinforcement of the ideas behind the title. If the art in these pages appears to be especially vivid, that’s because it is. Aufuldish and production coordinator Sue Medlicott were able to check proofs against the actual art works, the result of which, he says, “is very satisfying.” by Dana Rouse
