The identity builds upon a history of experimental identity systems at the Walker, such as the one created in 1995 by type designer Matthew Carter, "whose Walker typeface, created specially for the Walker Art Center, is not only renowned for its pleasing appearance and legibility but is seen as one of the most innovative typefaces of the 1990s."^[5]

This exhibition explored graphic design work from 2000 to 2010.^[7] In 2015, he curated the exhibition, [https://walkerart.org/calendar/2015/hippie-modernism-struggle-utopia Hippie Modernism: The Struggle for Utopia] that surveyed the art, architecture, and design of the countercultural period (1964-1974) and edited its accompanying catalogue.
