Type Hike
Type Hike, is a collaborative nonprofit initiative that celebrates the outdoors through illustration, typography, and design. Founded by David Rygiol and James Walker, the project brings together a collective of designers to create artwork inspired by nature, exploration, and public lands.
The project launched in 2016 with 60 original designs commemorating the National Park Service’s centennial anniversary in collaboration with Poler. Poler. Since then, the collection has been exhibited in galleries across the country and has become part of the Library of Congress' permanent collection, highlighting the role design can play in celebrating and preserving cultural landmarks.
