Custom, location-inspired annual event branding.

Savas Labs has biannual retreats where Savasians gather for a few days of in-person collaborating, hacking, focused discussion, and camaraderie. In the spring, this gathering, called Parliament (the collective noun for a group of owls), is in the North Carolina Triangle. In the fall, Savasians gather in destinations such as Atlanta, Nashville, and San Francisco, known as Retreat Yo'self.

During my time at Savas, I led efforts to create custom logos and themes for these events to be used in presentations, social media, and apparel.

During the 2024 retreat, I kept notes during our conversation sessions and noted statements that were particularly resonant. As a challenge to myself, I wanted to render a selection of those quotes before the end of the gathering. I succeeded, and this is the collection of those quotes:

1-craft-context
2-buildable maintainable
3-fluency
4-document
5-stump
6-reach-out
7-why
8-crits
9-but-what
10-ownership-pride
11-take-the-why
12-investment
13-braggable
14-find-ways
15-task-taker
16-100mph
17-donde
18-fly

I want to talk about colors with you.
