In Episode 12, "“Breathtaking” Design Universe," talk about the world of brand guides—from the meticulously detailed to the downright bizarre. Brand guides are an essential resource for shaping a visual identity and the effective communication of a brand. Some of these brand guides are brilliant, some are over-the-top, and some will leave you wondering... why?

Here are the resources we looked over in this design talk:

• 1976 NASA

• 2008 Pepsi

• Slack

• Discord

• Spotify

We reviewed last week’s Font of the Week, Magasin, and announced our next font pick, Neue Haas Grotesk, available on Adobe Fonts.

New episodes 9am MST every other Friday!
