Launch Party: Standard Volume 5

02292012 img1

Another Sappi success! Last night, the Olmsted-Kirk Dallas crew attended the Sappi launch party held at the AT&T Performing Arts Center. This event was part of a ten city tour in celebration of the release of “The Standard 5: Special Effects”.  In lieu of a paid ticket, each attendee was asked to give a $10 direct donation to the 826 National Organization. The 826 Organization is a network of eight non-profit writing and tutoring groups across the U.S. dedicated to assisting students, age 6-18, to strengthen their creative writing skills. Cocktails, h’ors doeuvres and a plethora of Sappi goodies were given along with a truly memorable presentation. As a bonus, each attendee received an advanced copy of The Standard 5: Special Effects. Volume 5 of The Standard shows designers how the creative use of special effects can make a printed piece dimensional, tactile, intriguing and sometimes interactive. Believe us, the “effects” inside are truly unbelievable! More details coming soon...

2012 DSVC Dallas Show: We Won!

meowdsvc

We're still celebrating after this weekend's 2012 DSVC Dallas Show. It was the bee’s knees! On Saturday, the Dallas design community got dolled up at Edison’s for a Roaring Twenties themed affair to celebrate the outstanding local design work from the past year. This show was particularly special to us because, by golly, we won! That’s right folks, we were awarded not one, but TWO bronze medals! Specifically, we won for this newly revamped okpaper.com website and our “O-K Says HELLO” campaign featuring  printed materials supporting its re-introduction. And the awards didn’t stop there—our very own, Cathy Hadd, won the gold Kenny Asel Award for her exceptional contribution to the club and its membership. Cathy, we applaud you!

We are incredibly appreciative to the very important people who contributed to the success of the okpaper.com and re-launch campaign, our designers based in Austin, Lewis Carnegie
