The Advisory Committee
Our ideology:
The people crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.
There are three responses to a piece of design - yes, no and WOW! Wow is the one to aim for.
Design is a plan for arranging elements in such a way as best to accomplish a particular purpose.
