making meaning’s roadtrip to swayspace . . .

making meaning took a roadtrip to swayspace on november 5th to understand more deeply the importance of expressing messages, information and graphics, beautifully well. the prime movers and shakers, willy schwenzfeier and patrick fenton, along with their design crew that includes shannon and ben, gave us a window into their design process and the rather fluid balance between appropriate technologies both old and new. websites and wedding invitations might not seem to be related in nature, but all swayspace projects are approached on the premise of looking beyond the obvious for more meaning . . .

swayspace’s studio location is in a rather interesting building, the old american can factory, in the gowanus area: 232 third street at 3rd avenue, brooklyn, new york
