TWO TWELVE'S COLLEEN HALL TEACHING AT YALE

New York, NY, 10 January, 2005—Two Twelve Associates (http://www.twotwelve.com), the New York City-based public information design firm, announces that Associate Colleen Hall has been selected to teach a course at Yale College.
 
Ms. Hall, a graphic designer who has been with Two Twelve since 1996, is
teaching Introduction to Graphic Design in New Haven two half-days per week through May 2005. Having just completed her design work on New York City's Candidature File for the 2012 Olympics IN 2004, Ms. Hall will continue to manage projects for Two Twelve's clients with projects in branding, graphics and publications design through the Spring.

Ms. Hall was invited to accept the prestigious responsibility last year by Pamela Hovland, then Acting Director of Graduate studies in Graphic Design
for Yale's School of Art. She presently reports to Henk van Assen, Lecturer in Graphic Design and Director of Undergraduate Studies. A graduate of Yale's MFA program herself, Ms. Hall has previously taught workshops in graphic design at Fordham University’s Manhattan campus.

The class is a prerequisite for all undergraduate graphic design courses at Yale, and is comprised of students majoring in a variety of subjects.

In addition to her work on the NYC2012 Olympic Bid materials, at Two Twelve Ms. Hall has contributed to the design of Lower Manhattan Development Corporation’s (LMDC) identity, exhibit and public communications; the United States Census 2000 identity system and forms; the signage for the landmark Grand Central Terminal renovation; and the design of the annual catalogue for the Leigh Bureau, one of the world’s most prestigious speakers' bureaus, for five consecutive years.

Ms. Hall received her Bachelor of Arts in design from the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit, and her Master of Fine Arts from Yale University.
