Once again we can’t help but give a big thanks to the Minneapolis Egotist for featuring us on their blog. For those of you not familiar with the Egotist they firmly have their fingers to the pulse of the very bright Minnesota Design Community. As some of you may know, Replace is a pretty unique design shop and we created a video with our friends Rau+Barber talking about just that! In case you haven’t seen the great video they created (and that was just shared by the Egotist) you can catch it right here! You can also (and we highly recommend it) check out the MPLS Egotist article here!

When our friends from Blue Spot Lobotomy asked us to design their album artwork for them there was no way we could say no! Congratulations to Blue Spot Lobotomy for releasing your album! Harkening back to the days of  early lobotomies illustrations, we wanted to make them something both visceral as well as beautiful that borrowed from that aesthetic. We really can’t be happier with how it turned out!  Special thanks to Angel Bomb for doing such a brilliant job letter-pressing these as well as a special thanks to Sheehan for the great photos!

We just wanted to give a big shout out of thanks to MPLS Egotist for once again featuring our work. Recently we posted a tweet discussing our packaging work for the children’s iPad toy Tiggly and the Egotist was nice enough to give us a nice write up. You can read the article yourself here!

We want to congratulate clients and friends, Origin Meals on their recent site launch! The new site we just designed for our awesome OM client has hit the ground running.

Thanks again Origin Meals for your great, positive brand message for healthy eating! To find out more about Origin Meals and their paleo-inspired (might I also add delicious) meals click here!

JOIN US Feb 24th for this EPIC event!

EPIC selects teams of top-flight advertising and design professionals and pair them with nonprofit clients dedicated to education, children and families. Over just eight weeks, the teams working on a strictly probono basis and led by an esteemed creative directordevise marketing solutions that their nonprofit clients need. Together, they make a bigger impact on the world than either could alone.

Last January our own Jeff Johnson spoke at the launch of EPIC Minnesota in support of all the work EPIC was setting out to accomplish in the coming years and how important it is to both the creative and nonprofit communities.  Our very own New Business and Project Manager, Haley Kilgour is the Program Director for EPIC MN.

With the help of amazing twin cities volunteer creative talent EPIC has charitably contributed roughly $300,000 in pro bono creative services to local nonprofits over the course of a year–an accomplishment worthy of celebration! At Hell’s Kitchen on Monday February 24th we’ll gather those volunteers as well as nonprofits and other creatives together in one space to celebrate all their hard work and toast to a successful 2014!
