The graphical mood
They are the lucky ones who don’t deal with words but with pictures, colours and also things called CSS, html and other things we can’t spell. We are jealous because they work on Macs. We work daily with them and they proposed the photo below to illustrate their current working mood. They are the designers of [...]
Video six-pack.
It’s a tradition. Now and then we make a video, especially just before Christmas. Sure enough, at the end of last year, we made Writing for (y)EU. Basically, it’s a commercial. It’s about the stuff we do. You may know it; it’s on our Vimeo page and was embedded in a previous post on this [...]
