I’m a person who gets really excited about office products.  I get goose bumps when I see a new cool pen or someone shows me their daily organizer.  I just can’t get enough of it.  The thought that this simple little object could transform me into a highly organized and efficient machine at work excites me.  A direct side effect of this highly delusional thinking is I’ve been able to sample just about every product out there.  

A year ago I was in the market for a personal task management system, which utilized the highly popular, though life altering, Getting Things Done theory as its organizational platform.  After weeks of research I finally decided to try Mac Things developed by Culture Code. The reviews were stellar...

Certain songs dictate our feelings and activate specific memories as soon as we hear them. We're amazed at how quickly music can transport you back and trigger those long lost feelings. Luckily for us, music can also help define and mold new exciting memories to last a lifetime. These days sports teams, celebrities, corporations, TV shows, and even presidential candidates all have theme songs. Here at the office, Event Architects and Creative Republic use an array of music when crafting that "moment" at an event. Sometimes music even helps define an event's brand as a whole -- we look for inspiration behind every nook and cranny. 

While each event is different and wonderful, there are a few songs that are in our go-to song arsenal. There is something about these songs that help conjure up the moment driving your unique message home to your audience.. with a little extra flash and passion.

Working with and delivering creative assets on a daily basis for clients always keeps our design team on the lookout for the latest presentation gadgets.  When delivering assets, be it proposals, videos, audio or general creative elements, we always like to print custom, professional-looking CDs and DVDs to deliver to our clients. We feel it’s just one of those extra touches that shows professionalism and thoughtfulness—creating one of those “oooh ahhh” moments. Believe me, the little things like this say way more about your company than you would think. 


The latest addition to our presentation arsenal is the DYMO DiscPainter. This gadget has been out for a while and honestly, we heard about it way before we decided to make the purchase. The website and testimonials are quite impressive and the demonstration videos really do highlight the cool factor.  So, our need for a quick yet high-quality disc printer had become a priority and after a designer-friend in the business recommended the DYMO DiscPainter, without too much hesitation, we had one setup for the office.
