Here we all are: one quarter down, and another begins. But there’s plenty of sunshine and patio meetings in our future so who can complain? Since we’ve been so busy over the last month, in particular, we wanted to share a peek at what’s been going on over here!

Chicago Womxn in Design

In honor of Women’s History Month, we embarked on a month-long social media takeover of the incredible women and non-binary design talent in our hometown of Chicago. Check out all the people you should know!

International Women’s Day

We have an incredible group of women here at Grand Studio, and we were thrilled to participate with the greater community for international women’s day. You can see our inspiration on our Instagram from March 8th.

A few incredible Chicago designers: Lauren Lucchese, Julie Morycz, Sam Dietz, Autumn Schultz

Diana Deibel at SXSW

Our voice & future tech lead designer, Diana Deibel, represented both the AI and Latinx perspective at SXSW on the panel Whose Story Is It To Tell? about diversity in branding and product design/marketing. Take a listen to the panel.

Ignacio Martinez at Ignite UX

One of our innovative multidisciplinary designers, Ignacio, brought his ideas around how to design screen experiences that allow for IRL experience time as well. Video of the talk will be posted here soon, and in the meantime you can check out Ignacio’s sweet headshot.

Diana Deibel at Social Snacks

Diana was back at it again, sharing her learnings from SXSW, along with several other women thought-leaders in the Chicago community at a women-led event by Social Snacks and EvolveHer. The panel was live-streamed over Facebook and may be accessed on the event page.
