SEGD

The DCA Chapter learned so much--and had fun doing it--at our most recent event. Held at Gensler DC's office, we learned about tips for improving our professional presence. Selling ideas is critical in our field, and Christine Clapp of Spoken with Authority helped us develop confidence and composure in delivering our messages. We learned tools, and then practiced them with partners throughout the evening. By the end of the night, most participants noticed a marked improvement. Several attendees claimed it was the best professional event they had ever attended!

Join us at our next event at the Wharf in October, information to come shortly!

Please join us for an evening with Jan Lorenc, founder of Lorenc + Yoo Design. Jan Lorenc will present his insight after more than 40 years in the field, and engage with students as they interview him about his career trajectory. Snacks and drinks will be served.

Jan Lorenc established Lorenc+Yoo Design in 1978 in Chicago. Previously, he designed the logo and signage guidelines for Target  Stores, which are used to this day. The company initially undertook industrial design projects, and later began work on large scale signage programs. In the mid-1990s, the firm moved into exhibits, interiors, and architecture. The  firm has worked in Korea, UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, India, and Japan. Currently, half of their work is in China where it creates the vision and design for brand new towns.

Jan Lorenc was made a fellow of SEGD in 2017.
