NEWS: David Tann Named MODA's First Designer-in-Residence NEWS | Museum of Design Atlanta (MODA) Names David Tann as its Inaugural Designer-In-ResidenceAnnouncement kicks-off a 5-month residency to include school visits, workshops, lectures and other specially-curated programming and events.

As the Games prepare to close this weekend, one of the things that drew us to the Olympics this year was Paris aiming to be the most sustainable Olympics yet.
•
Since the bidding phase, Paris 🇫🇷 had a vision to “organize better games with less to leave a legacy.” They worked at all levels to reduce their environmental and climate impact—less venues built, less equipment produced, less single-use plastic for food and beverages, basically everything that could be reduced was reduced. Throughout the games, we noticed signage that included Phryge (the cute little red dorito you’ve been seeing) with a call to be more eco-friendly. ♻️

While making our way around the Olympics, we have been enthralled by the wayfinding signange. Rooted in orphism, a Parisian art movement from the early 20th century (around the time of the 1924 Paris Olympics) that inspired cubism, we noticed the abstract kaleidoscopic nature that develops throughout Paris (and the four other cities where competition is underway).
The color choices grounded in Paris architecture and variations of the sandstone that paved the city with the PINK that floods the area as a color of contrast. It stands out among the sandstone and functions as a link across all locations - venues, metro stations, and all places of party. And don’t get us started on those pictograms!!! 🤌🏼🤌🏽🤌🏾🤌🏿 Paris in pink with pictograms to create perfectly clear paths!!!!
