The black album launch party: the pictures

Special thanks to both Sarah’s and our graphic designers Pierre and Damien, whom we shamelessly put to work on the night by handing them disposable cameras. Photography Sarah […]

FAntastic and FAbulous: the opening of FA Gallery

The project was an ambitious one right from the word go. The idea, although simple, was massive in its scope: to reinvigorate a dire and rather stale local fashion and art landscape (in this case, that of Kuwait), and infuse it with much-needed pep. Whilst style staples such as Villa Moda had dominated the local […]

Follow the Guide – The Video

Over two months after, it’s high time to refresh your memories and remind you of the interactive design exhibition we organised early September with a three minute video directed by Gaetan Saint-Remy of Sep Stigo Films. The three opening nights were as good a success as we had hoped for (this being our first truly […]

A Kinda Gang opening party in Amsterdam

We asked Rena, our latest intern who has since left us, to go up to Amsterdam to party it up with the city’s cool cats for the opening of Puma’s A Kinda Gang. Here’s her account of how the night went down: “Puma kicked off the launch to their newly-released Suede Classics with a pop-up […]

10 years of Showstudio – The party

We rediscovered 10 years of old Showstudio projects at the opening party of the exhibition at Somerset House on Monday; there were plenty of highpoints, including Alexander McQueen turning a bridegroom into a bride for Transformer and Julie Verhoven’s erotic interactive wallpaper, and we loved the way they managed to keep the audience-participation tone of […]
