Meeting its Maker

THIS JUST IN, FROM SOUTH AFRICA:
"I thought you might like to keep this as probably the most worn piece of BF clothing. It's tough to part with after all these years, but I finally realized I can't wear it anymore - so it's best in the hands of the maker. Love & Peace, Allen"

“Like Trying To Eat a Sandwich Through a Venetian Blind”

Bottom Feeder recently designed a poster for a series of joint performances by singer-songwriter Kate Schrock and her father, Pulitzer-nominated novelist / playwright / essayist Gladden Schrock. Some of the most delightfully epic client feedback we've ever received is re-printed below:

“Better, yes. Heading in the right direction. Shall know more clearly when I see just where the top-edge of poster sets its crop (re: overall balance and critical info parsing). I do miss a touch of color… to nudge it a mite away from the full cerebral.

(Doing this three-way with me at a hidden distance is a little like trying to eat a sandwich through a venetian blind).

Looking forward to Sunday Morning.
Thanks,
Gladden S.”

*The final poster was in color.

No Hablo Espanol

American Airlines just ran an article on our t-shirts in their February/March in-flight magazine. Somehow over the course of about 27 conversations and e-mails with the creative director, it never came up that it would be in spanish. We were dying laughing when we finally saw the tear sheet.

Is It Art?

Our friend Libby bought this photo at our COUCH show. She and her husband have since relocated to France. Here's what the french have to say about it, according to a recent e-mail from Lib':

"... We have your couch photo in our living room. And everyone thinks it's our sofa on moving day. Oh what the heck I just go with it..."
