Happy 50th Birthday!

It's a familiar, friendly face. You see it several times a day, but did you know that Helvetica is celebrating it's 50th birthday? If you're as obsessed with typography as I am, then you'll really enjoy this article; and if you're not obsessed yet, hang out with me... it's contagious. (Or watch the new documentary, Helvetica.)

We miss you.

RIP, Leslie. You're missed by everyone who's ever met you, and the world is worse off without you.

Further Studios designed the book cover, and also designed a new splash page for them, along with promotional images. And starting today, you can pre-order it online for only $15 and get it a whole week earlier than everybody else (with free shipping, no less)!

The Further Studios site is now live!

Ever since we moved back to Alaska in 2004, we've been blessed with lots of really, really cool clients. And that's great, because we love working with people. The only downside to that is that we've been so busy with our clients' projects that we never could find the time to work on our own web site.

Until now.

At 7pm on Friday, May 12th, the new Further Studios site finally launched, and we all celebrated with filet mignon! We wish you could have made it, but I've got a feeling there will be several more occasions worth celebrating in the future. Stop by the Further Studios compound and help us celebrate! We'll be open all weekend, from Noon-9pm - we'd love to see you!
