D&AD Legends of Design: Mary Lewis

Wed 9 Dec 2026 18:00 - 21:00 D&AD HQ, E2 6EH

The Legends of Design is a series hosted by Michael Johnson of Johnson Banks, dedicating an evening to the life and work of legendary, landmark figure of design.

This edition welcomes Mary Lewis, pioneering designer, co-founder of Lewis Moberly and the first female President of D&AD. Over a career spanning five decades, Mary has helped shape the world of branding and packaging design, creating distinctive identities for some of the world's most recognisable brands. A trailblazer for women in the creative industries, her influence extends far beyond her award-winning work, helping to redefine creative leadership and the role of design in business.

With the help of a few slides, some great stories (and a few glasses of wine), this will be an evening to remember.

Look out for the next in this series – we’ll be announcing the next ‘legend’ very soon.
