If you like finely crafted design & printing then you’ll love it when it’s paired with finely crafted beer. Our next meeting is a mixer between the South Carolina AIGA and our little RefreshColumbia group. We’re going to be doing a full on beer tasting mixed with a talk from Nick Wilson of The Half & Half design & print making studio.
The Design Talk
Nick Wilson will be talking to us about the “craft” of design and printing – something he knows tons about. Plus he’ll be showing off some really amazing work for us. Nick Wilson attended The University of South Carolina, graduating from the graphic design program in 2007. The Half & Half studio opened above Sid & Nancy, in Five Points, later that year. They’ve since moved to 2119 College St.
Their work is as passive, yet aggressive as their dynamic. A discordant, nevertheless familiar arrangement leaves the viewer with the sense of a profound tensile strength; ferocious, like a hungover lion…The female one, they are actually the hunters, which is surprising…At least to this reviewer. I mean, they have no mane, you know?* – The State
The Beer Tasting
We’ll be pouring five beers of inspired design representing a broad spectrum of styles, from the brightest gold to pitch black. Tickets for the beer tasting are set at $12 – you can still enjoy the evening as the event is free to everyone.
