LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER | INHOUSE DESIGN AND THE INFODEMIC

Some 250 years ago, John Adams observed: “One useless person is a shame, two is a law firm, and three are a Congress.” America has a long tradition of distrust of its institutions and elites, and a double serving of skepticism has always been part of our national psyche. But the full-on collapse of trust in our laws, customs, practices — the ripping of the social fabric in the wake of the pandemic and the great polarization — is downright terrifying and destabilizing. Not to mention potentially destructive to our precious experiment in democracy and its admittedly zigzaggy path to perfectability. INFORMATION BANKRUPTCY As if I was not already losing sleep and hair over these concerns — okay, the hair loss may just be a functioning of aging — I attended a talk earlier this month by Richard Edelman, CEO of the Edelman global communications firm whose mission is “to evolve, promote and protect brands and reputations.” To that end, his company conducts a respected annual survey about trust and credibility in communications. In GORDON KAYE IS THE PUBLISHER OF GDUSA Comments, suggestions and letters can be sent to gkaye @ gdusa.com.

his presentation, Mr. Edelman reported a deep — and deepening — lack of trust in government, business, NGO’s, academia and, of course, the media. One of the most serious ramifications: we are suffering from an “infodemic,” his label for the loss of faith in traditional sources of reliable information and credible communications and, thus, in the content of the communications themselves. As he stated: “Trust remains the most important currency in lasting relationships between these institutions … and their various stakeholders. Particularly in times of turbulence and volatility, trust is what holds a society together, and where growth rebuilds and rebounds. Every institution must play its part in restoring society and emerging from information bankruptcy.” Why is this relevant to the creative community and our 2021 Inhouse Design Awards? I will circle back to that in due time. Meanwhile... WELCOME TO THE INHOUSE DESIGN ANNUAL Welcome to GDUSA’s 58th anniversary American Inhouse Design Awards edition. Ours is the original and premier showcase of inhouse design excellence, and the pieces this year were selected from more than 6,800 entries. Given all the uncertainties, the 2021 competition proved, remarkably, to be among the biggest, and arguably the best and brightest. As I have speculated before, this is likely evidence that inhouse people are vital, productive, resilient and future-oriented. Or crazy and stubborn. Or both. Whatever the motivation, the winning pieces span the country and touch every segment of the public, private and non-profit sectors. They display graphic design for commerce and culture at its best by professionals who ably advance their client’s objectives and build meaningful value for their organizations, products, services, causes, ideas. The design is smart, it is appealing, it is strategic, it uses the full range of media available. As I have written before, receiving an American Inhouse Design Award is a triumph on many levels: a personal feat of talent and hard work; a collaborative accomplishment for a team working together to advance an organization’s goals; and a victory for all those who toil inhouse and may not garner the recognition and reward they deserve. For our winners the moment is especially sweet, since the path to a successful design CONTINUED

LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER | WELCOME TO THE INHOUSE DESIGN ANNUAL CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2

solution is often steeper than for their counterparts at independent agencies. Suffice it to say that working in a corporate setting can trigger existential challenges — explaining and quantifying to senior management the immeasurable addedvalue of design and communications, justifying the resources and freedom required to do the job right, overcoming the inherent conservatism of organizations to creative risk, and growing and developing as a professional. Indeed, this awards program was founded for the very purpose of addressing these matters, to turn conventional wisdom on its head, to declare that the best inhouse work is the stuff of design annuals and — most importantly — that it makes a valuable contribution to the institutional mission and to the audiences served. In a four decade career, there are things of which I am not proud. Of this I am proud. In the sweep of design history, it is fair to say that inhouse departments are relatively better situated. Graphic design is understood to play a critical role in the success of products, services, information and ideas, and more creative, marketing and communciations departments are successfully pushing against past constraints and converting upper management. As a result, the contribution that design can make is better understood and respected, inhouse positions are considered more attractive, the light shines more often on inhouse accomplishments, and inhouse designers are winning a seat at the table if not always the boardroom. PREPARING FOR THE CHALLENGE The disruptive events of the past two years can only speed this upward trajectory. The AIGA POV Design Research Initiative: 2021, which looks at the impact of the pandemic on the creative marketplace, recently concluded that inhouse design teams have fared better than their counterparts in studios, agencies and freelance. From my perspective, there are three reasons for this. First, inhouse departments have been agile at mastering the technology, infrastructure and managerial resources to make remote working successful. On this, the experts all agree. This has led to surprising degree of adaptability and productivity, an unexpectedly smooth transition to hybrid models, and a growing consensus that remote, or at least flexible, work is the wave of the future. Inhouse professionals find themselves at the cutting edge of workplace change and it’s sibling, work-life balance. Second, inhouse departments, at their best, foster consistent collaboration, communications and trust between and among inhouse creative professionals and upper management. These characteristics and practices — collaboration, communication, trust — have proven to be just the soft skill set necessary to promote efficiency and effectiveness at a moment of disruption and challenge. Finally, circling back to the very real threat of an “infodemic,” inhouse departments can serve as a therapeutic. The core value proposition of a first-rate inhouse department is its intimate knowledge of the organization’s identity, culture and organizational objectives. They are keepers and protectors of the torch, in a unique position to express the essence, the credibility and character of an institution, its products, services, mission. To communicate the truth, to be clear and transparent, to convey authenticity and empathy. Not incidentally, they did all these things extremely well during the height of the pandemic: COVID-related health and safety communications were informational and useful, yes, but they also sent a message of institutional caring, calm, continuity and commitment. At a time when organizations must dig deep to find their true voice, to reinvent or reaffirm their identities, and to meaningfully connect with a post-pandemic world forever changed, inhouse departments are proving up to the task because, in a sense, they have long been preparing for this challenge. I hope you enjoy our 2021 American Inhouse Design Awards showcase as much as we have enjoyed bringing it to light.

Mohawk Renewal Sustainability with a story

B

A — A selection of the Mohawk Renewal Portfolio. B — Hemp fiber is rich in cellulose, just like wood—but it grows much more quickly. C — One common way farmers in Eastern Washington formerly disposed of their straw was to burn it, releasing carbon into the atmosphere. D — Once cotton pulp is broken down into slurry, it’s ready to be turned into paper.

With the introduction of Renewal, Mohawk Paper is writing an important, new chapter in their environmental sustainability story. Mohawk Paper is expanding the definition of sustainable papermaking and redefining the contours of their fiber sourcing practices. By introducing legacy fibers like hemp, straw, and cotton textiles, they’re looking to the past to define a more sustainable future.

Reimagine: Hemp Hemp fibers were long used across American industry to manufacture fabric, rope, and paper until they were outlawed in the 1930s. Now, PureHemp Technology, a small research company in Fort Lupton, Colorado, has created a low-carbon, green process to turn hemp stalks into pulp for making a wide variety of papers. With PureHemp’s process being used to manufacture hempderived products like pulp, papers like Mohawk Renewal join the CBD and legal marijuana industries, driving demand for this rapidly renewable agricultural crop. Unlike trees, which take 7 to 35 years to mature, hemp grows rapidly, maturing in as few as 90 days. Turning it into pulp requires less chemicals, water, and energy than wood, and it can be used to make a vast array of paper types, from greeting cards to label paper, cardstock, and packaging. Until recently, hemp stalks were never used as raw materials; they were simply tilled under in the fields. Now, this sturdy fiber is being repurposed to make paper, which is a benefit to the environment on every level. Since hemp can be raised nearly anywhere, refineries using this process can be set up across the country. Working with Mohawk has helped prove the viability of hemp fiber for pulp while fostering a new supply

chain. It’s a massive opportunity to make a meaningful environmental impact. Reuse: Recycled Cotton For centuries, cotton textile waste was recycled to make paper. Today, there is more textile waste than ever. Strong, yet soft, these cotton fibers make beautiful paper. Mohawk Renewal Recycled Cotton uses two sources for its cotton fiber: white t-shirt trim and blue denim thread. Four generations after Cheney Pulp and Paper Company opened in Franklin, Ohio, the mill is still making pulp out of cotton rag—now with original owner Howard Cheney’s greatgrandson Mark Snyder at the helm. The company’s work is newly relevant thanks to a manufacturing partnership with Mohawk. Recycled cotton pulp from Cheney is used to make Mohawk Renewal T-Shirt White and Denim papers, giving cotton textile waste a second life. Made from t-shirt and denim scrap diverted from the millions of pounds of textile waste sent to landfills every year, these pulps remain unbleached and require no dye in the papermaking process.

Textile scrap material arrives in 1,000 pound bales of tiny clippings, which staffers sort by hand to weed out synthetics and ensure everything used is 100 percent cotton. Then, using a combination of heat, water, and time, those scraps are transformed into pulp for paper. Making this sustainable pulp for the new Mohawk Renewal range of papers takes pressure off landfills while bolstering American industry. Reclaim: Straw Straw is a byproduct of wheat farming. Every year, after the wheat harvest, thousands of acres of straw are either burned off or plowed under. Now, that straw is being reclaimed for paper pulp.

D

Among the golden fields of grain in Eastern Washington, the largest wheat harvest in North America, a new company is bringing green industry to this pastoral landscape. Columbia Pulp, based in Dayton, WA, the first new pulp mill in the U.S. in decades, has pioneered a cuttingedge, sustainable process, developed by researchers at the University of

Washington, that extracts pulp for paper from humble wheat straw. Columbia Pulp contracts with farmers across the region, spending $13 million annually on straw. Unlike wood, straw doesn’t need to be pressurized to transform into pulp, saving enormous amounts of energy. The new process is more environmentally friendly than comparable methods, requiring 25 percent less water and 70 percent less energy. It also eliminates the need for the annual “fall burns” farmers set to clear straw from their fields, when four to five million acres are set ablaze, creating acrid smoke and carbon emissions. Straw pulp creates paper products with a slightly yellow hue, which can be turned into a wide variety of products. There’s plenty of room for growth— the nation boasts 10 times as much biomass from farming operations, like straw, than it does from trees. Using straw as raw material for paper means less trees felled for paper, fewer damaging fires in Eastern Washington, and economic growth in rural communities. This sustainable product eases environmental impact and, you might say, spins straw into gold. •

| 2021 | GDUSA’s American Inhouse Design Awards™ is the original and premier showcase for outstanding work by inhouse designers and their departments. This year’s showcase of roughly 350 projects — there were a near record 6,800+ entries — reflects the many and varied ways in which inhouse creatives advance the mission of and build value for their companies, institutions, brands, products, services and causes. It also serves as powerful testimony that the inhouse value proposition — creative professionals who have a deep and intimate knowledge of the institutional identity, culture and objectives are perfectly positioned to deliver effective and authentic communication — is alive and well. And especially relevant given the challenges ahead.
