Still debating whether we like edge painted or regular, but here they are nonetheless.

Check out the facebook page for details about the musicians poets and savvy intellectuals lined up. Its all free providing you RSVP and of course design by the minds here at S&G Studio! See you there!

On the daily, clients ask me if I can take a photograph they took with their phone and make it look like the ones they see on the cover of their favorite magazine. My answer “Of course we can! It’ll take about three weeks!” But why not do it right the first time? I don’t know how to stress this enough: Before you read the magazine article you read the headline, before you read the headline you look at the headline image! GOOD PHOTOGRAPHY IS SO IMPORTANT! Its the very first thing we look at and it dictates whether we are interested or not. I’m so happy to be working with the photographers we have now, they really are the best around, and I think they would agree with me about the importance of image today. In fact, I encourage you to give us a call and ask them yourself. Besides, it’s very quiet here and I think they’d appreciate someone to talk to.

“Independent research undertaken by the University of Twente proved that the Dyslexie Typeface improves reading results. The study at the University of Twente has shown that people with dyslexia make fewer reading errors when they use the Dyslexie typeface compared to using standard typefaces. Part of the conclusion of this study is that people with dyslexia achieve higher scores on the EMT when using Dyslexie. This is an indication that texts written in the Dyslexie typeface reduce the number of reading errors”

Its about time Smash & Grab Studio added web and interactive work to the portfolio. More content will be up very very soon so don’t forget to come back and say hi.

Have you ever come across something that basically sums up everything you’re trying to express? Simply put, one of our designers came across this image recently and we all instantly agreed; the principal behind this card is, in fact, the nucleus of our company. What would’ve happened if we never saw Mr. Coyote’s business card? In retrospect it was the idea we’ve been struggling to explain all this time. Maybe you have been struggling to find that image or slogan or classy business card that sums up what you’re trying to say? Ironically, Smash & Grab prides itself on helping you get your message across in a clear, direct, creative kind of way. Come by sometime, we make great coffee too.

Well ok, they’re not actually made out of glass, they’re 130 pound cardstock. But they’re for Vourvoulis Architectural Glass Consulting (wordplay!).

Are you aimlessly wandering Los Angeles looking for the Earlez Grille truck? good news! The website is soon to be up and running thanks to the insomniacs at Smash and Grab Studio! When we feel like a hot link or a Jamaican Patty, we usually end up at Earlez brick-and-mortar shop at the end of the Shaw (formerly the landmark Jack’s Chilli Factory) but if you’re not the cruisin’ type, just look up where the truck is! Hot dog and french fry tracker via internet, 2012 is turning out to be quite an exciting year indeed.

Stay tuned to see Philip Vourvoulis’ brand new business identity and website! Consulting, design, and fabrication are the things that make Philip the authority in all things glass and maybe the coolest guy in Portland. Be excited!
