As I mentioned, I’m terrible at keeping a “post frequently” promise. Between this entry and last, life has been very busy. My grandmother passed away, I threw my sister a baby shower, I accepted a job offer, and started my job! Despite the family loss, life has been good-busy.
I want to move on from my life and talk about design for once…
So we all know how the “green” movement has become this insanely popular concept. I can’t think of any major company or organization that hasn’t in some regard marketed their steps towards being “green”. The funniest part is that many of these companies hardly make a difference in their footprint on our earth. Whatever…at least this is causing CFLs to be cheaper. So why I mention this movement is because over 2 years ago now, I designed a “green” kit for graphic designers on how to be environmentally friendly. I made the kit “for” AIGA’s Center for Sustainable Design…it’s a shame I didn’t market it to them. They may have gone for it…check it out:
It was an extended, 3-piece mailer with a warning postcard and pop out/fold up monster and 3 body parts, the full kit (complete with a full size monster, 8 postcard mailers with tear-offs to keep, 7 blank notecards, 6 letterheads, a bunch of body parts for the monsters, and a lot of information), and a warning postcard with another monster to fold up. Such a fun project.
