It’s Sunday, January 26th at 11:00 am EST, and we're coming to you from Wollman Rink in Central Park. Today is Wayne Gretzky's birthday, and many Gretzky-ites have gathered here to celebrate the Great One's contributions to motivational thinking and self-actualization. As we circle the ice together, gliding counter-clockwise at a glacial pace, we chant our shared mantra again and again: "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." – this is the Amalgam, 85.
One more time for those in the back: Happy New Year. Things are off to a solid start in our little corner of the universe. We're gearing up for two big trade shows in the coming weeks, so if you'll be attending Shoppe Object or Chicago Collective, please come find us.
Just yesterday we announced that we're looking for a Brand Designer to join our team in Brooklyn. This person will play a pivotal role in shaping and evolving our visual identity. From product packaging and emails (like this one), to our website and print materials, the work will be dynamic and hopefully a lot of fun. If this sounds like the role for you, please apply! If this sounds like a fit for someone you know, please forward them this email.
Our first launch of the year is weeks away, and we are excited to share what we've been cooking up. It's a small collection of desk products made in collaboration with a local manufacturer, and at a slightly different scale than we typically work in. More to come very soon.
Finally, two popular products that sold out over the holidays are back and already moving swiftly. The Best Wine Key in Big Red, and the Match Striker in Brass are in stock and ready to ship.
Now on to the first-rate multimedia bonanza below – we hope you find something you enjoy. Happy Sunday and we'll be back soon.
