Dora Drimals is stopping over Houston for one night only to share the incredible story behind the award winning work at Hybrid Design. For nearly 25 years, multidisciplinary San Francisco studio Hybrid Design has translated eclectic interests and deep curiosity into impactful design for clients like Nike, The North Face, Pinterest, Sonos, and YouTube. Now, the studio has collected two decades of that work and philosophy in its first book, Hybrid: Curiosity in All Things.
***AIGA Houston will be giving away 2 books at the event.***
Join us for an evening of inspiration and networking with your peers and flip through the 650 pages, featuring real project examples and a collection of insightful essays from the Hybrid Design team.
