at somepoint in time you must adapt to change + the inevitable: a rebrand. since moving to the pnw three years ago this has been in the back of my mind knowing i must adapt to the new arena of the AI digital age with a better focus on my seo + backend support. something i just really didn’t care about or even want to share within oversaturated crowd.
being future forward has always been important to me if not the most important : keeping focused on what makes my artwork unique + in the forefront in the big bad competitive world of DESIGN. i am hopeful this is the year of sustainability as I am hearing a lot of builders, engineers + designers wanting these products..now for them to not only want them but need them to help mother earth + move forward into only eco-friendly practices.
onward + upward into 2025 >>>> a rebrand is on its way !!
strolling into fall design day 2024 @ the seattle design center with my winter intern from UW, we check out the scene trying to gather information like a crime doc. how many people are here? are there artisan lectures? how many signed up? inquiring minds want to know! turns out they sold out @ 250 tix! nice job sdc
we head to baker | mcguire bc of course, lisa miller showroom manager gives a fun talk to a nice 20+ crowd about how their latest BESPOKE* line really is just that, latest buzzword in design, custom-made or tailored to the customer's specifications* just like my artwork. perfect, she also nods to the artisans, as they are finely curated due to their specific use of natural elements + thoughtful process. happy that said intern got to see the fruits of her labor [ she conducted her marketing skills successfully with baker | mcguire ]. no small feat.
buffet lunch spread was just as gorgeous as delish with their offering of seasonal salads + sandwiches. got to chat with a couple of young design professionals + meet my new winter intern to show her my work upclose [t h e most important element of this job]. the best part for me when visiting the design center is when I have a vision : let’s see what’s next!
