Experience Brand Engagement
What makes you rush to the Peet’s Coffee & Tea 5 miles past the nearest Starbucks every morning? Why is it that you can’t resist visiting the nearest Target store? Why do you always prefer United Airlines to one of its competitors? It has got nothing to do with a compulsive disorder, if you are […]

HOW ABOUT THAT!?
THE INTERROBANG
Gotta tell you, it was pretty thrilling to discover a new punctuation mark. Ok, so I didn’t “discover” it, rather stumbled upon it.
According to a short history of the interrobang, it was created in 1962 in order to fill a gap in our punctuation where writers often used typographically cumbersome and unattractive combinations […] -

Web 2.0 Logos - Trends?
Logo design for “Web 2.0″ brands are following an traceable aesthetic trend. Colors are brighter, iconography is simplistic and typographical treatment tends to be cleaner. Overall, the trend borders on “child-like” elements from company naming through overall look and feel.
Below, feast on this amazing collection of recent logos, collected by flkr member Stabilo […] -

Johanna Went Went Retro
Frenetic artist Johanna Went gave an impressive performance packing a full house for her last night performance at her retrospective at Track 16 in Santa Monica. I spotted some familiar faces including a couple of celebrities: Ben Stiller and “what’s her name”, + a couple of stars that I should have known their names if […]

jungle [8] principal, Lainie Liberti interviewed on Women’s Radio
About a week and a half ago, I had the pleasure of speaking with Pat Lynch, the Editor in Chief at Women’s Radio, an online radio station for, well you guessed it, women. It’s quite an amazing resource covering topics that concern women (or anyone for that matter) including arts & entertainment, business matters, […]

Got Business card, Bud?
One dictionary defines the term “bud” as: “1. an outgrowth on a stem or branch consisting of a shortened stem and immature leaves or flowers, often enclosed by protective scales.” Who would have thought that description would be relevant in describing the characteristics of a business card or a two-dimensional marketing campaign?

Painting with Light
05.23.07 | Permalink | 3 CommentsArtist Heather Carson paints with space, electricity and florescent bulbs. The image of her work does not do it justice. Really. I had the opportunity to meet the artist in her studio last April at the Brewery Art Walk. It’s amazing to see Heather and her crew sitting on the floor of her loft, soldering […]

War on Terror, the game.
A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting 3 amazing artists who imagined, created and illustrated, this amazing board game called War on Terror. Really.
It’s been described as a cross between risk and monopoly, only a bit more diabolical. It’s a satirical way to look at (and play) the war on terror. […] -

The Brand Gap
I was so thrilled when I stumbled upon this slide show, the summation of Marty Neumeier’s book of the same title, The Brand Gap: How to Bridge the Distance Between Business Strategy and Design. I loved this book! I am someone who has studied and read many of the academic books on “the […]

What do you get when you combine Green Peace and an Apple computer?
Campaign Summary (from the Greener Apple site)
We love Apple. Apple knows more about “clean” design than anybody, right? So why do Macs, iPods, iBooks and the rest of their product range contain hazardous substances that other companies have agreed to abandon? A […]
