Peace Lane Studio

The iconic department store's brand identity was developed in the mid-1960s by Henry Steiner, the influential graphic designer whose work represents the city’s most transformative decades.Steiner &amp; Co. recently unearthed more of the archive including sketches and early research that Billy, as the studio’s newest partner, has been interpreting. In this talk, Danielle will also share personal insights into the period when her father was the company’s managing director for nearly three decades.
