We have a lucky city
This morning on the way to work one of our staff grabbed this snap. We are living / working in a lucky city.
Rocket man in Auckland domain??
Its hard to believe but the future is here and now. Last week (Aug 6th) there was a ‘rocket man’ in Auckland domain. Check it out here
Did anyone see him? If so let us know what happened…
A Wellington anti-graffiti ad
We like to know whats going down in Welllington (We were born there and we miss its legendary bars, cafe’s and restaurants). The Wellingtonista is one place that keeps us up to date. Like this weird anti-graffiti ad.
I guess it answers the question why Resene doesn’t produce spray cans.
Goodbye Melrose House… Hello Kingsland!
6am-1pm: we packed up Melrose House this morning and proudly waved goodbye to the birth place of endemicworld.com.
1pm: the boys from Crown turned up on the dial… they were stoked we had mos def playing.
3pm: trucks were off and we disconnected Melrose…
5:50pm: sitting at new desks, connected and blogging, boxes are being opened (with the beer and wine) deciding where we put the salvaged Melrose House sign…
We will post some more photos soon… Have a good Friday.
Watermelon Face and Humidity
Its not a new band name, its actually a watermelon face. Watermelon is the best way to cool down during this intense humidity. How this relates to nz design we’re not sure, but it’s not often your watermelon has a face as cool as this.
Don't believe the type
So after we posted about typeshed11 this morning, we had a few brain farts (as you do) and had an idea for a t-shirt to wear to the event to start a conversation. John from Studio Alexander whipped this up in 50 seconds… We will send it to typeshed and see what they think. I know I want one.
More bikes
Friends in Europe sent this photo of bikes at a train station in Netherlands. This is a small town!
It reminded me of a photo I took on a notice board at the GreyLynn Festival a few years back. Maybe it will be like this one day. I know that I would be keen to ride my bike over the harbour bridge, or maybe take the skater…
Rush hour would be easier to handle if you looked at peoples bottom’s instead of their bumpers… or maybe not.
