Rick has been making unconventional tools for designers and for other thinking persons for 20 years. It’s how the studio he founded—MATTER—thrives. Rick might inspire you towards self-reliance, or towards creativity, or maybe just remind you that you are a designer.

About the speaker: Rick is a graphic designer and master letterpress printer. His work is an exploration of language, history, politics, science, music, and ethics. Born and raised in London, Rick immigrated to the U.S. in the late '80s. His love of design (and his partner Debra Johnson) sustain the design practice MATTER, which, has grown into an ambidextrous design consultancy, print shop, workshop, and retail bookstore. As design director at MATTER, Rick works across all media for business, culture, and civic engagement. Rick is an active participant in the Denver design community, and travels the world as a visiting artist, lecturer, and educator—sharing his enthusiasm and knowledge with the next generation of designers.
