last day of printing wood

Today was the last day of printing the wood blocks, so I guess that means we are just about ready to release Artplay 3D. The boxes come tomorrow, so we're ahead of schedule, which is unusual for our product development, well done Marina !

The top image is Adam Stewart, the woodwork part of The Aesthetics of Saving project. I decided today that our State of Design exhibition opening party will be on Thursday 15th July.

details to follow.

We're planning to make the back room at the Malvern Road store into an events space, So I'll be and programming regular exhibitions from the studio and friends.

I think it might be a good idea to make the space available for other work, particularly from out of town. So if anyone is looking for a space and a billboard and has an interesting idea we would be happy to have a look.

artplay 3D - the wait is over !

Today marks the first day of production for the much anticipated artplay 3D. The fine tuning and production planning is over, the wood arrived early cut to size. The old paint colours from the doors were looking so good I almost didn't want to print on it.

Then Marina set up the Le Corbusier screens and started printing and everyone stood around watching the first few pieces come off. Then the sample box arrived, thanks James McAlister , for the contacts. Then Alvin finished the artwork for the hot stamp, then the panels John Blamey cut from the flooring of the recently demolished Lonsdale House arrived. Tom and Aymon are continuing the printing this evening. Can't wait to back to work tomorrow.

I know you always like the last thing you made, but...
