Look Both Ways

BOOK SIGNING
Debbie Millman will be signing copies of her books after the lecture. If you have one of her books that you would like signed, please bring it with you. There will also be a limited number of "Look Both Ways" available for sale by our chapter.

What makes a brand stand out? Is there some magic that turns a simple script logo for a soda into the international graphic icon that is Coca-Cola, or makes us salivate over the latest product from Apple? Presented by Debbie Millman, partner at Sterling Brands and President of the AIGA, this presentation takes a deep dive into the influence branding has on our everyday lives, from branding ourselves and the world around us to the role branding plays in the products we buy and the way we live. Topics covered:

  • The five historical periods of modern branding, highlighting brands that define each period
  • How human evolution and population trends are linked with branding
  • How psychology and behavioral rituals are linked with branding
  • How technology has changed the way we interact with each other and with brands
  • What it takes for modern brands to stand out in a crowded marketplace
  • How branding connects with our most hard-wired, basic instincts

Debbie Millman has worked in the design business for 25 years and is a partner at Sterling Brands. She recently worked on the redesign of Tropicana, Ben & Jerry's and Pepperidge Farm cookies. She teaches at the School of Visual Arts, and gives lectures around the country as a national president of the AIGA, and on her weekly internet talk show, Design Matters.
