As you may have noticed this blog has died.  But don’t worry, it has been reborn as a part of The District’s main site www.thedistrict.co.uk.

The new one is being kept up to date almost daily, so go on, have a peek.

ah, but isn’t it pretty. View from Mill Road bridge, Cambridge, 9am 02.02.09

Rebecca and someone else from University Campus Suffolk came back with this.  Love the strip lights.  Thanks and Merry Christmas to you.

…when we stare out of the window jealously looking at people ambling around, Christmas shopping and meeting old friends for coffee, while we work through the night trying to get through our workload which bulges like Santa’s sack.  Anyway that’s enough self pity. Onto the matter in hand.  We like to get a bit interactive with our ‘Christmas card’. This year we designed a stencil/decoration type thing for people to do which whatever they saw fit.

We just need to figure out what to do with 500 grey triangles now.

It happened – The District had 10 pumpkins, The Junction had 10 pumpkins. We carved, we spiked an orange, we lit pumpkins, we drunk mulled wine and we had a rather jolly time.

The Junction even came dressed as pumpkins, and Ed came in his usual attire, dressed as a pumpkin.

The Junction were eventual winners keeping it traditional, beating the creatives at their own game – well not quite but you get what we mean.

We look forward to the Christmas-off, where victory will be ours.

We are behind The Junction’s new site, if you’ve yet to check it out take a peek. It’s looking damn good (and even sparked interest from formfiftyfive which made our day at the office).

The Junction is such a vital part of the Cambridge art’s scene and the new website to promote The Junction’s programme and activities was definitely called for. It’s been an exciting project to be part of and the final result is an aesthetically engaging and intuitive website that connects with the diverse audiences of The Junction. The site is informal, usable, energetic and definately non-corporate.

Hope you like…

George went walking in Somerset on Sunday and came across a new world full of endless possibilities. He tried to entertain a conversation but they remained tight lipped…

George worked late last night to get his head round a large scale wall planner. Here is Georgie demonstrating the art of ‘pretending to write’…

and here it is in all its glory!

We have been asked by University Campus Suffolk to get involved in pitching for next years prospectus. Now… we’ve had our fingers burnt many times in these here darn pitches but ‘what the heck!’ we thought. Here are a couple of ‘Lomography’ style covers we produced.
