Grind is a 22nd century platform that helps talent collaborate in a new way: outside the system. A members-only workspace and community dedicated to taking all of the frustrations of working the old way and pulverizing them to a dust so fine it actually oils the wheels of the machine.
What do you think of that? Have you ever used or considered using a co-location space as a freelancer? Pro? Con?

This Studio is clean, crisp and graceful. It is beautiful work, always for you, the client. This Studio was founded by David Bennett. This talented collective is showing off their projects in a most unusual and original way.

Driv aka think simple, act simple is a multidisciplinary designer, art lover, big fan of indie music and crazy about analogue photography. He works across graphic design, editorial, art direction, illustration, and any other mediums that can communicate the idea better. In 2011, he went back to Kuala Lumpur and started his own graphic design studio, LIE.
Showing the whimsical and playful Salt Films website he designed. Luv the litteral metaphor he used. View the live version here.
Aside from illustration and design, Karan Singh is a curator and writer for a self-initiated side project by the name of Pig Bimpin’. It’s an online resource documenting creative people, articles of industry and a showcase for excellent work.
The name, “Pig Bimpin”, is a play on the title of a famous track by American hip hop artist Jay-Z, ‘Big Pimpin’, a slang used in describing those who exude success, fame and fortune. “Pig Bimpin’”, flips the script on this name, a direct allusion to the often less the glamourous fruits of creative labour.
_______
Excellent interviews w/ Alex Trochut, Matt Moore, Justin Maller, Arnan Chair, Jeremy Somers and Ravi Vasavan.
Save the words for another day. Or for meet-ups with clients. So they say – Intercity who love graphic design and art direction have used huge giga visuals to show off their portfolio. That’s it! And plenty.
And yes they have created the CR (Creative Review) logo and a lot of their covers. So words – are irrelevant. Their work speaks amply.
Don’t we wish clients would be just this way wowed?
