Brockett Horne is a designer, educator, and writer. Her creative work encourages audiences to question their own ways of consuming design. Clients include the Baltimore Museum of Art, Johns Hopkins University, Decentering Whiteness working group, and Harvard University. She has won multiple design awards and presents her work internationally. Her research interests include: typography and power, packaging in the early 20th century, and monograms. With Louise Sandhaus, Briar Levit, and Morgan Searcy, she is co-director of The Peoples Graphic Design Archive, a crowd-sourced digital platform that enables new and expanded stories about graphic design history. This experimental project asks each of us to write history instead of reserving narratives for only those with special training or access to exclusive tools. The project has received multiple grants and has been presented internationally.
