Thesis faculty member Brian Collins has, says Adweek, reclaimed his freedom after an amicable split with The Martin Agency. Brian’s own firm, COLLINS: will continue to brand and design and develop projects for the public good, including a real-life graphic design make-over show.

“Passionate about using his skills to better the world around him, Collins, who lives by the mantra,” says Adweek, “‘Design is hope made visible,’ discussed the global water crises at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, as a member of the Global Agenda Council on Design. And with the work he is doing using “design as a tool for transformation,” and the network show Collins: is developing, Collins hopes to help bring a greater understanding of the power of design and the meaningful impact it can have on solving real-world business and social problems.”
