Plus, there will be cocktails.

AIGA on spec
Occasionally, we get asked by a client (or potential client) to provide work on a speculative basis. That is, to do uncompensated work with the hope of 'winning' more work, or the account as a whole. We really dislike this notion for a variety of reasons, many of which are eloquently articulated by the AIGA—The Professional Association for Design, here.03.13.10 Posted in: Features

Had our old friend Matt Owens up from NYC to lecture to our local UPSTNY AIGA group last night at Sage Albany. His work is better than ever, and his discussions are always entertaining. Some pics here. Thanks to Sage Albany for hosting and Mohawk Fine Papers for sponsoring the event.02.26.10 Posted in: Features
