Hike San Francisco
Adobe | April 4-5, 2014

Working together, Form & Future teamed up with Jason Schwartz of The Secret Handshake to create Hike Conference, a one-day event intended to inspire and equip students and emerging professionals with ideas and tools to pursue a bright future in design. The inaugural event was held at Adobe in San Francisco, hosted by TypeKit.

“What literally started as a lunchtime Skype chat between Laura and myself where we said “Hey, I love what you do, let’s do something amazing together,” turned into something that even the two of us couldn’t have imagined, so we thank you.”
