Society for Neuroscience


The Society for Neuroscience exists as a group and resource for those in the field of brain sciences. Neuroscience requires both a theoretical study as well as applied sciences. The identity and stationery required professionalism while still alluding to this organic science. The abstract mark is symbolic of the two hemispheres and four quarters of the brain. The identity also subtlety references the aesthetic of historic anatomy drawings, with the mark doubling as a seal-like emblem. An emailable brochure, poster, and postcards were created for the society's annual conference. The collateral alludes to the fluid movement and connections in the brain. Watercolor droplets distilled in water were shaped to resemble a human brain and spinal stem.

Asking Why


Asking Why is a series of three books and satchel revolving around the idea of censorship. The books are heavily influenced in content and idea by Revolutionary War materials, such as Thomas Paine's "Common Sense," and other ideal-pamphlets. The books are meant as awareness peices, although they try to avoid the cliche idea of bold graphics and ripped paper when representing censorship. Instead, they utilize elegant, shifting type. The books progress in content and tone from meek and strictly academic, to a louder visual calling the reader to ask why.

Society for Neuroscience


Saying Things Differently is an exploration in the idea of typography as communication. The book progresses through the different methods for setting type (kerning and tracking, point size, weight, face, etc.) and ends with a series of experiments thats set a phrase that may invoke a certain emotion in a very unexpected way. The arguement is that absolutely every element of set type can change the reading of any content, and that those choices in themselves can communicate just as much as any other design element or content.

The two spreads explore faith in the United States through inforgraphics. The focus of this project was specifically on the abstract idea of faith, and not different religions. The radial diagram shows the overall strength of faith in the U.S. in amounts: the dots closer to the center represent those who most strongly believe, while those furthest away do not believe.

Museum of Sound


The Museum of Sound is a fictional museum that aims to create a new, ever-changing entertainment experience. An identity was needed that could show this excitement, while still presenting itself as an academic entity in the 21st century. A mark, stationery system, brochure system, three brochures, and brand book were created for the museum. The color scheme is based off the Doppler effect and the red-to-blue shift as a means of visualizing motion, vibration, and sound.

Take Another Look


Take Another Look is a social awareness campaign for homelessness. The call to action is, unlike most campaigns, not directly related to donating money. Instead, the goal of the project was to remind people that the homeless are still people. It's easy to be in an urban area, with many around, and begin to forget about our surroundings, people included. The challenge was to find a way to communicate humanity without a human face.

Aaron Heth is a graphic designer completing his studies at the Savannah College of Art & Design. He is interested in the opportunities and ideas found within communication. He is concerned with concept, reason, and purpose. He strives to do two things in his work: communicate through appropriate choices for any given project, and to continue to grow while pushing himself to look at problems from new, and unexpected points of view.

In his free time, Aaron co-hosts the online audio show Read Between the Leading, contributes to different social arenas of designs, writes, reads, enjoys other things, and drinks quite a lot of water. He enjoys both print and web design. He is available for freelance, is beginning his career search for a firm in the San Francisco area, and would love to hear from you.
