After two years of fundraising and planning, HRN is thrilled to unveil a new visual identity and website. To share some behind-the-scenes insight into the redesign process HRN’s Executive Director Caity Moseman Wadler and Communications’s Director Kat Johnson sat down with the iconic Pentagram designers behind our new look. Paula Scher is one of the most influential graphic designers in the world and her images have entered into the American vernacular. Scher has been a partner in the New York office of Pentagram since 1991. She began her career as an art director in the 1970s and early 80s, when her eclectic approach to typography became highly influential. During the course of her career Scher has been the recipient of hundreds of industry honors and awards, including the profession’s highest honor, the AIGA Medal. Jeff Close is a graphic designer from Toronto. He has designed for clients such as The New School, The Library of Congress, New Jersey Performing Arts Center, and many more. His work has been recognized by D&AD, TDC, AIGA, Tokyo TDC, SEGD, Fast Company, CommArts, PRINT, among others. In 2012, he started the design podcast Listen Close and, in 2019, he founded and launched Crust Magazine, an online magazine that recognizes the collective meanings of our relationships and individual stories with food.

This episode was produced in partnership with Discover South Carolina and Charleston Wine + Food. This week on HRN Happy Hour, we’re learning about South Carolina’s culinary scene from the people who know it best: its Chef Ambassadors! Meet Kevin Mitchell and Jamie Daskalis, of Charleston and Myrtle Beach, respectively. They discuss the people, culture, ingredients, and relationships that make South Carolina’s food scene so dynamic. As restaurants and tourism begin to pick back up, they share insights on an industry in recovery and share some timely advice for people looking to plan their next trip to South Carolina’s coast. Chef Kevin Mitchell is one of those rare culinarians whose professional interests far exceed the confines of the kitchen. He truly is a “chef scholar,” with two degrees from the Culinary Institute of America. Mitchell is the first African American Chef Instructor at the Culinary Institute of Charleston, and his work prioritizes the preservation of Southern ingredients and supporting South Carolina’s community of chefs. Chef Jamie Daskalis grew up in restaurants – her father owned and operated four restaurants in New York. Today, she is the brainchild behind the wildly popular Johnny D’s Waffles and Bakery. Daskalis is also passionate about serving her community. As the mother of a child with autism, she routinely hosts events to advocate for others and spread awareness of the condition.
