LGBT MUSEUM — Brian Wilkens

NATIONAL LGBT MUSUEM | OBAMA ADMINISTRATION

While in office, former president Obama did more for the LGBT community than any previous president. In partnership with Obama’s team and the National LGBT Museum, we developed this book as an appeal for donations. Visually A Symmetry of Rights played off the elegance of triangles and grid-based design. The copy extended the motif of visual harmony to human rights.

One of my favorite facets of being a writer is empathetically communicating with my audience. Which requires me to take on the emotions I’m trying to communicate. The subject matter of this 50-page book was often horrific and heartbreaking. It was a cathartic experience. And one of the most rewarding of my career.
