20×10

I’m currently working at Saatchi and Saatchi London.

All very interesting, particularly the office next door. It’s usually the working space of David Goss and Ollie Wolf, but they’ve decided to turn it into London’s smallest art gallery, 20×10.

Currently it is hosting an exhibition of photographer Ollie Kellett (weak interest declared: Daryl and I gave Ollie his first job in advertising. He’s since left that side of the business. Read into that what you will).

This is how the office usually looks:

And this is how it was transformed into an exhibition space:

And then the people arrived:

Nice one to the guys who decided to make an art gallery, and nice one to Ollie, who is excellent and for hire.

I’m sure he’ll leave his professional contact details in the comments.



Really rather good ad for luta clothing, and an excellent promo

(Uninteresting fact: the Seb Edwards who directed it is not the one I went to school with.)

Today’s post is on another blog

Read about my three all-time favourite pieces of copy on the Sell! Sell! blog.

While I sit back and find another use for the time I would have spent writing a post:

1) 3-starring Angry Birds Rio.

2) Mixing and drinking a fucking good margarita.

3) Doing some of the very interesting work I have to do.
