New Pinterest Notification Icons, Nice

The new Pinterest notification icons are sweet.

I think that this really adds a whole new dimension to Pinterest especially with regards to comments.

Having comment notifications I think will create a lot more discussion and dialogue on pins.

Well played Pinterest.

Hokie Heels - The Big Event at Virginia Tech

The Big Event is held annually at Virginia Tech. It is an all day community service project during which students at Virginia Tech trek out into the community to do service project.

It was pleasure to sponsor the event and an even great pleasure to reveal our Hokie Heels to student and let them experience them first hand.

N.C. State Sustainability Mock-up

So I was not enamored of NC State Sustainability profile picture. 30 minutes with some photoshop and at least a decent starting point, WITH authentic N.C. Students.

Sustainability IS Creativity

Where are the boundaries of creativity?

As I've been pondering this notion of a 'greenSPARK' for SPARKcon (http://www.sparkcon.com, an event that highlights the diverse creative culture of Raleigh and the surrounding communities in North Carolina), I've been going in circles trying to determine rough boundaries for highlighting sustainability and 'green' practices within the context of an event that is about creativity, the arts, and talent usually in things like fashion, dance, music, and even digital and technology, as in geekSPARK.

United States colleges and universities have long been a driving force for fair labor around the world.

Apparel and merchandise licensed for sale by universities are almost all required to be a member of the Fair Labor Association (FLA) or otherwise commit to and insure certain labor conditions for workers.

Fall 2011

It has been an awe inspiring Fall in NC.

Heel: Friend or Foe - Part 3

The Heel is a duty.

There is something surprisingly and profoundly humbling about designing high heels, particularly for schools.

The gravity and honor of being allowed to design and craft heels for these schools is very similar to being handed someone's weeks old baby.

There is that sense of awe, care, responsibility and trust as you cradle something precious and dear.
