Last fall an outdoor exhibition The Urban Forest Project took root in New York City. One hundred eighty-five celebrated designers and artists levered the idea or form of the tree to make a powerful visual statement in banners displayed throughout Times Square.

“The tree is metaphor for sustainability, and in that spirit the banners from the exhibition are being recycled into totebags designed exclusively for the project by Jack Spade. Profits from the sale of the totebags benefit Worldstudio AIGA Scholarships and the AIGA/NY Mentoring Program to sustain the next generation of design talent.”
