Noir City is an annual event that showcases restored film noir classics, held at the period-appropriate, art-deco styled AFI Silver Theater, in Silver Spring, Maryland.

Cigarette smoke and Futura:
Classic film stills are combined with one typeface and one color to create an elegantly minimalist visual identity.

Project scope: Logo design, editorial art direction and collateral design. Typeface family: Futura

Snappy one-liners that mixed humor and pathos in just a few words: some of the best dialogue in cinema history was written for film noir. The Noir City event staff t-shirts are emblazoned with choice film quotes that combine cynicism and wit.
