mini cards - like business cards but smaller!

We actually produced these cards about a month ago, and i just
stumbled on the image on my mac so i thought i'd blog it here!
These are a set of 'mini cards', thats right like business cards
but smaller for our client - Sphere. Thanks to the Sphere for
being brave and trying the unusual size of 70mm x 40mm.
We (and Sphere - thankfully) think they are great, and
support the idea of a small company with big ideas!



Watch out for spheres new website which is in progress.

Hola!

We went to Barcelona over the weekend and it was awesome!!
Its everything you want a European city to be, it has lots of little
cobbled streets surrounded by beautiful ancient buildings with
lots of little cafes & restaurants to stop at and top up on tapas
and sangria! There are street performers everywhere, some good,
alot awful!! Then theres a gaudi designed building in the middle
of a normal street!!

Sagrada Familia is - a m a z i n g !!! No wonder Gaudi didnt finish it!!
Can you imagine pitching to the local council saying 'im proposing to
build a cathedral thats going to take 100+ years to build and its going
to be mental with the interior based on a forest!' Any way heres a few pics...

Funny Foods

A lunchtime visit to Asda yesterday (yawn) was made more fun by laughing at foreign funny sounding foods!! See pics below...




I think ill stay clear of the cock flavour soup!!



Help in the Studio

This morning, Charlie the cat decided he would help in the Studio.
He'd make a rubbish intern! He didnt make coffee or contribute
to ideas or create any artwork!! He did have his own note paper though!

100% Design

A couple of weeks ago, we made the trip down south to a sunny Earls Court for 100% Design. Which was good fun, there were a couple of things that caught my eye though. The Luminoso stand and product was super cool!! and they have a nice flash site too! link here.

They are basically a venge wood panel with pin point back lit holes, which can be cut to any shape which creates an elegant light form, ideal for a swanky bar! Image below...


There were also these cool polystyrene limited edition massive tea cups. At £20 a pop.
I wish id bought one now, it would look ace in the studio! Bit difficult to carry on the train though!
