Posters flooded Duke’s Campus announcing the week’s events for The Primate and Biodiversity Conservation. The celebration was filled with art exhibits, performances, case studies, tours, talks and discussions sponsored by Duke Evolutionary Anthropology and Jane Goodall’s Roots and Shoot’s program. The announcement for the new home of Jane Goodall’s 50 years of collected data describing the behavior of chimpanzees ended the week and signifying the next 50 years of Duke’s Jane Goodall Institute Research Center.

What is it to “Being Human”? Duke University’s office of the provost sponsors a bi-annual series of presentations and panel discussions about current topics of interest. A theme graphic was created to unite a variety of communications in promoting this sponsorship. Posters, 8.5 X 11 flyers, campus advertisements, web banners, and bus line graphic materials were created to push communications.
Color themes were used to announce a new speaker during the series. Black and white ads and horizontal banners are presented online and in bus interiors.

A one-of-a-kind project to document the voices of Duke Medicine’s past, The Magic of Medicine at Duke is a collection of narratives — ranging from brief anecdotes to in-depth accounts complete with citations — written by Duke alumni, faculty, staff, and friends. The volume seen here is a collection of highlights recounting “The Medical School Experience,” “Making Medical History,” and “Leaders, Teachers, Mentors, Friends” at Duke Medicine.

The cover and bookmark feature a custom illustration of iconic Gothic architecture, inspired by a landmark synonymous with Duke University.
The Font is Frutiger Roman, designed by the Swiss designer, Adrian Frutiger.[3] Frutiger is a humanist sans-serif typeface, intended to be clear and highly legible at a distance or at small text sizes.
The memoir was produced incorporating Letterpress one of the oldest printing methods, dating back to the 15th century when Johannes Gutenberg invented movable type. The cover was produced by letterpress, and printed by Brian Allen at Officina Briani, Raleigh, North Carolina. The letterpress press is a single-color, hand-fed platen Model 60, manufactured by Joh. Gietz & Co. Machine Works, established in 1892 in Zurich, Switzerland. The cover is printed on Rives BFK, a mold-made, 100 percent cotton-rag printmaking paper manufactured by Arjowiggins.
The book block, inside text pages, is set in Sabon, a font family designed by Jan Tschichold in 1967, and Frutiger, a font family designed by Adrian Frutiger in 1976.
