If you feel like checking out some experimental theatre, Design Kompany recommends On the Boards’ Northwest New Works Festival this weekend and next.
Interestingly, Design Kompany met On the Boards last year just at the time they were going through an update of their brand identity design. Does anyone remember what it used to look like? Only a subtle update, but a good one in our opinion. Nice work, OtB!
What was really neat was that Design Kompany got to do a writeup for On the Boards’ blog last year for this exact festival. Check out Quartet and the Muse, and also the Prologue and Epilogue DK posted here:
