Farewell sweet workspace...



It's been a great first 3 years in our space -- the cradle of our practice, the lunchroom of our salad days, the fledgling command center of future market domination -- and we'll miss it : the windows the light the old brick the neighborhood of trees the fire station and black-smocked Aveda girls diurnal migration and the no parking (won't miss that) and Vesper College downstairs and Brasa across the street and all the restaurants and the River right there and White Castle and Surdyk's everlasting tasting and oompa loompa deli workers and the mad collision of Central & Hennepin at the ragged edge of the last wave of development petering out..the insurance guy in the shack below the billboard on the shoal of curb & gutter...the mute dusty corpse of Totino's...

Ahhh --

Yeah, we'll miss it -- but the new space will be even cooler! Stay tuned...
(Many thanks to Scott Gilbertson for coming over on short notice to professionally document our fair and soon-to-be erstwhile workspace before we proceeded to start tearing it apart...for more of Scott's images as well as some portraits of a partnership in perpetual transition, walk this way...)
