GDUSA V. 51 N°1 (2015)

10 PEOPLE TO WATCH
GDUSA starts each year by choosing a group of People To Watch who embody the spirit of the creative community: talent, leadership, newsworthiness, insight, business savvy, community involvement. In a field besotted by brilliance, this is a subjective process. Still, for five decades, it often works out: the roster of past participants is star-studded and the 2015 group adds to the glow. A special thanks to Mohawk, the fine paper and envelopes maker who needs no introduction, for its exclusive sponsorship.

58 STUDENTS TO WATCH
With help of many of America’s leading schools, we identify 30 of the top art and design students in the land representing top institutions. It’s a win-win for everyone: the students get recognized and we get energized. Heartfelt thanks to The Creative Group, the specialized staffing firm, for helping make this feature possible.

78 DESIGNER-FRINDLY GUIDE
Companies and institutions that understand the creative mind are rare and, Lord knows, it’s getting rarer. Every year, we spot-light a selection of designer- friendly companies and resources value. From papermakers to image providers to manufacturers to distributors to eventmakers to associations, they stand with the creative community in this time of change.

108 COLOR OF THE YEAR
Need a shoot of confidence? Pantone has the solution: Marsala is the Color of the Year, and this hearty, earthy hue, inspired by the fortified wine of the same name, promises style and stability – and lots of applications for graphic, package, fashion, beauty, and interior design.

110 PAST PEOPLE TO WATCH
A complete roster of our past People To Watch. It’s a remarkable array of legends, legends to by, and almost legends. If this list does not read like a Hall of Fame – the early decades include names like Bass, Glaser, Vignelli – and recent years include Sagmeister, walsh, Hische, Kidd, Millman – we don’t know what does.
