Other Clients

Bart Reitano — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 15:22:37 +0000

Based on recent blog postings, you would think The Hundreds was our only client, not the case. Recently we started became the digital AOR for Globe, including Globe Surf, and Globe Skate, along with Dwindle, Speed Demons, Enjoi, Almost, Darkstar, Blind, and Tensor. Right now we are in the process of getting the hosting for all of the sites under control with our friends at (mt) Media Temple. Once the server transition is final and we have everything running, we will start the development of many new sites. Stay tuned for more.

Happy 6th Anniversary….

… a little late.

Erik and I made our way up to Rosewood a while back to wish Ben and Bobby happy 6 years of The Hundreds. In typical 530 style we were there for about 25 minutes, and spent most of that time talking to Yasi about the movie Singles.

Goth vs Cholla

Bart Reitano — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 21:42:01 +0000

Yesterday we released our newest collaboration, 530 vs. Cultist, and this time we are catering to the ladies. Yasi from Cultist and I had talked about this for a while and when I asked what the graphic should be she suggested something along the lines of Goth / Cholla. That inspiration was handed off to 530’s own MO who came up with what you see. I was surprised by Yasi’s idea as I thought she would go with something more along the lines of Carne Asada fries / Irish Nachos, or maybe even NorCal slippers / upside down visors. The tee is now available in our online store.

Agenda vs Huntington Beach

Bart Reitano — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 18:06:01 +0000

Yesterday we ventured out to a city called Huntington Beach, just 3 cities south of Long Beach yet it seemed like another world. I think I grew up in that city, but it has changed since then, and by change I mean it is nothing like anything I remember. We were there to take in the Agenda show, see the sites, and say hello to our friends (Obey, The Hundreds, Mosley Tribes, Vestal, Proper, Hall of Fame). The show seemed like a huge success, this is the first time the show has been at this venue and judging by the amount of people at exhibitors there were I think they will be back.

A man with a plan, Scott Turner aka Switch. Hopefully HBPD let you get home without an escort.

Bad Habits are Hard to Break

So while we were at Triumivr, we were able to cop there newest goodies Ashtrays, Lighters, and Bottle Openers. The packs are were available via the Triumvir online store. The sticker sheets are still available, you better move quickly.

Noodles vs. Tacos

Bart Reitano — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 17:34:31 +0000

Erik and I headed down to to Santa Ana to meet up with Triumvir/Caked Out crew for a lunch, discussion, and general mocking of Brian for not paying attention to any of the previous. The guys took us to a noodle spot in a strip mall across from Kitsch bar, I would tell you the name but I don’t know it. The best part of having friends that speak fluent Chinese is the access we get to restaurants that we could not normally go to, and if we did we would be greeted with silverware and a Coke. Good call on this spot guys, we look forward to going back. As for our discussions, they went very well and sometime in November you will be able to see the result of those talks.

Last week we received a a delivery from our friend Benjie Escobar. Benjie sent us over his newest print, Baby D2, along with his newest project 400ml Spray Can(dle)s. Benjie’s new print is an homage to Star Wars, and Lady of Quadalupe fans, which makes it perfect for our walls. The detail on the candle is amazing, although what was billed as “Fresh Scent” reminded us more of a not so fresh scent. Regardless of the smell it is a great piece that has already found a spot on my bookcase. Both pieces are available on Benjie’s site, support local artist!

Dwell

Intern to the stars Trevor ventured to the Dwell on Design Exhibition, and all he brought back were these stupid pictures.

IdeaPaint, a great idea that is currently being executed in our office, by Trevor.
