(INDIANAPOLIS, IN. 2 October 2008) –James Kuester, principal of küster will be speaking to students at The Art Institute of Indianapolis on Thursday, 9 October 2008 as part of their “Pizza with the Pro” series. The series is aimed at providing Interior Design students at The Art Institute an opportunity to hear first hand about the different directions their degree can take them in their career. “We like to bring in professionals that are able to open our students’ minds,” says Nicole Stultz, Career Services Advisor for The Art Institute of Indianapolis. “We order pizza for the students and they get to listen to [a professional’s] presentation,” adds Stultz.
For his presentation James will be focusing on his work in commercial design and interior branding for clients such as The Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Advanced Cosmetic Dentistry and TMJ, and The Tech Stop. Interior Branding focuses on combining the elements of color, light, and texture; human interaction; technology; ergonomics; and a “defining touch” to design the emotional response in clients, that is, a company’s brand.
