Now just "&Walsh":
"Launched yesterday, &Walsh is the new creative agency headed by Jessica Walsh. Previously a partner with Stefan Sagmeister, operating as Sagmeister & Walsh, for seven years, the new firm is a continuation of the evolution of that firm that will maintain the 25 people that were there prior to the name change, minus Sagmeister who is withdrawing from commercial work to focus on personal work (not just a sabbatical as he has done in the past but for good). Based in New York, NY, &Walsh will focus on branding and advertising, kicking things off with their own identity."
- That wordmark is just miserable.Continuity
- That ampersand, thoughGnash
- Congrats to him for leaving and well, she struck gold when she started with Sagmeister. Who knows how she got all the success.NBQ00
- NB, you have to be a hot young designer just out of SVA, spy a top designer at a conference, target them. Bang them for some years, then go off on your own.robotron3k
- nuditymonospaced
- Start your own shop & claim you did it all on your own. Also get naked a few times for for press and clicks. Presto, you're a successful designer. So so easyrobotron3k
- She's run the commercial side for years. They maintain a team of 25 and get paid well to do weird art projects for brands. Why minimize what she's done?voiceof
- I remember her stuff when she just started. Was nothing special. There were far more talented & innovative designers. I guess looks/ nudity do matter?NBQ00
- fucking gross logocolin_s
- some of these comments reek of incels ffsernexbcn
- Yeh horrible logo, but agree with voiceof, you sound like bitter old farts.ben_
- Not bitter, just here to discuss.NBQ00
- Some pathetic boys here.i_monk
- Good for her, says I....exador1
- I've seen both Sagmeister and Walsh speak separately. His preso's were focused on substance and interesting design projects. Walsh was more self absorbed IMO.brandonp
- That's how she comes across. Very ego and all about her.NBQ00
- And she is a commi.Hayoth
- This site is turning into a bunch of bitter old men railing against the youth of today...rather sad! ;)yuekit
- I like her, and her work. I'm not so keen on the logo (ampersand is great), but you can't judge it fairly without seeing how its applied to things.Melanie
- Damn. I just checked out the applications. I don't like it, though I did appreciate the "Emloyee name" & Walsh business cards.Melanie
- Youth? She's 32NBQ00

- pointer to walsh?section_014
- nbq and robo jimmies rustled so must be doing something rightPeterPancake
- I'm not bitter at all that she's successful. Just discussing here. Why, how, etc etc.NBQ00
- The intro video with the animations on her face is so corny and cringeworthy. She really seems obsessed with herself.NBQ00
- https://andwalsh.com…NBQ00
- She's talented for sure, been following her on social media since years. The 'naked' part surely helped her to be known more widely and attract eyes over.Bennn
- Not just the nudity. When you're pretty it's much easier in life. Bennn you could explain this further.NBQ00
- Part of her schtick is marketing her persona and art based around the self. You certainly can't forget the poster that made Saggy famous, right?ben_
- I'm not saying she's great, but it's not like she's inconsistent.ben_
- The applications on this identity feel like throwaway work from Non-Format though.ben_
- Aesthetics aside, good for her and good for him for switching gears. I think she was smart to start working with/for him when she did the move.Maaku
- Now she owns the place. Personally, I don't like her shit but y'all are salty :) #BossMovesMaaku
- If salty then it's just that looks are big part in being successful in this superficial world.NBQ00
- The studio's new look aside, they have done good work under Walsh, which as pointed out before has been under her direction for years now.ben_
- Her work is mostly over-decorative design for brands we don't care about. But she employs people and is probably a nice person. We all can't save the world.omahadesigns
- Save the hate for people doing wrong in the world.omahadesigns
- no hate here. not sure why any little discussion means "hate", not at all.NBQ00
- Not aimed directly or solely at you NB. Robo's comments are filled with misogyny and clueless hate though.ben_
- to be expected though, I guess.ben_
- Extraordinarily Ordinaryutopian
- Don't worry, she'll be back next year same time to self promote more nude shots.robotron3k
- I hope a full on porn coffee book with all the girls there.NBQ00
- *coffee table bookNBQ00
- that whole company is a coffee table book imhocannonball1978
- Her website needs more pictures of her.utopian
- great case study to elevate a shitty identity. personally my taste goes to less dress up. that "case study" content crap. hate the 3d shit and the crappydeathboy
- computer word app type font. but 90s coming back so maybe shes positioning herself for a win on ugliness. she seems trend chaserdeathboy

- I like it.inteliboy

- my looks is what keeps the lights ondeathboy
- @i_monk i know an ad production company where all the men were hired just because of their looks...sted
