About the Design: In preparing for this upcoming conference, ADEA worked with a designer to create the imagery for banners and promotional material. We thought you might find It interesting to read about the thinking behind the design: “Colorful triangles converge into a geometric pattern representing people from all backgrounds coming together at the conference to share ideas and grow together. [The text] is formed from many different fonts, again representing strength in diversity—and giving an energizing reverberation effect like sound waves.”
