This project is particularly special to GSP founder and local SF advertising icon Rich Silverstein,who rides his bike across the Golden Date to work each day.Rich spent fifteen years on the board of the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy and personally captured the images that make up the print campaign,along with GSP's photographer and senior art director,Claude Shade.The duo was granted access to areas of the bridge that are otherwise strictly off-limits.The goal of the images is to shine a light on hidden parts of the bridge–one of the most photographed in the world–that many have never seen before.The photos have been specially treated to stay in-theme with the iconic bold"international orange"color of the bridge,and color blocking aesthetic Rich Silverstein made famous in GSP's previous print work for the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy.
