Designer Breakfasts
This morning I had the pleasure of meeting and listening to Franco Bonadio at the ‘Designer Breakfasts’ seminar held at BBH, Kingly Street. Franco, CEO and creative director of Identica, gave his refreshing and honest account of running a design consultancy. I liked his ‘fast/slow’ topic referring to a technique he learned at life drawing classes – spend too long over something and invariably the result is overworked and distorted. Give yourself limited time and anything can happen, sometimes disastrous, but often spontaneous, interesting and worth talking about.
All in all, a good way to spend a morning. I highly recommend it.

Kingsville & 5th birthday card
Following our work on the Kroo Bay appeal website, we’ve recently completed two more projects for Save the Children. Firstly an online birthday card appeal to raise awareness of the 9 million children who die each year before their 5th birthday. Children can create their own cards and send them, along with a message, to the Prime Minister. The second project is a microsite for the Sunday Times Christmas appeal to raise money for Kingsville in Liberia, West Africa.

We Are What We Do
We’ve recently been introduced to We Are What We Do, a movement that inspires people to use their everyday actions to change the world. They’ve published two books, the bestselling ‘Change the World for a Fiver’ and the just-released ‘Change the World 9 to 5’. They’re lovely books and enormously worthwhile to boot. They can be purchased at a wide range of bookstores and online at www.wearewhatwedo.org
