New York-based design firm 2x4 is credited with helping to redefine graphic design as one of the most inclusive and visible design categories. 2x4's sophisticated approach emphasizes critical thinking and research, and its projects encompass virtually all graphic media — print, motion graphics, and environmental design. The studio's design solutions are visually rewarding, employing rich but unexpected combinations of image, color, and pattern in work that is avant-garde yet rooted in the context of its subject matter. This exhibition illustrates the range of 2x4's design activity through books, custom wallpaper, and video experiences representing projects for clients as diverse as the Brooklyn Museum, KnollTextiles, and Prada (taken from SFMOMA). Michael Rock, principal of 2x4 is a winner of the National Design Award.
