here’s one we made earlier…

As most you might know, our bi-monthly online newsletter went into circulation in May of this year and thankfully has so far generated some positive responses from everyone who it went out to. We aim to continue it’s success by keeping you all up to date in the coming months. What the readers didn’t see is the original prototype, which took the form of a full-colour, 8 page newspaper, which we intended on printing in-house on recycled newsprint. It wasn’t until we attempted to feed the stock through our laser printer and spent the remainder of the afternoon peeling it from the rollers – that we realised this wouldn’t yet be quite feasible! However, the mock-ups shall remain safely tucked away in the drawer; ready to re emerge one day. In the meantime you can check out some of the early visuals we produced on our Flickr page.

We realise the posts have become pretty sporadic over the last week or two, thats because we’ve been exceptionally stacked-out! So far the summer of ‘08 has brought heaps of snow – and we’re under it. Promise to be back on form with some updates to the blog and the website (yes, the website) soon. On another note, I’m kicking myself for not taking the obligatory camera to the East Lancs Institute of Higher Education Art & Design show earlier this week, as there was some top notch work out for display. Congrats to all this year’s graduates and good luck. Piece of advice – get knocking!
grand design
January 31, 2008
Behold the India Mill tower in all it’s awesome glory, not as seen on the horizon from Lancashire’s hill country, but perched in the loading bay of the building? Yes – after many months of careful craftsmanship and attention to detail this wonderful replica was sculpted by the hands of our handy-man Dennis, and what a magnificent piece of work it is. Next project for Dennis is the Eiffel Tower. Photos are £2 at the India Mill loading bay.
its january then…

Compulsive viewers like me of GMTV (although I’d prefer to think that sub-consciously I’m forced to watch it first thing in the morning, because the other half insists on it when I’m still half asleep), will know that the annual Inch Loss island is just around the corner. I didn’t make the short-list for contenders this year, but because it IS January and the fact that we all played out what can be best described as live-action versions of the classic video game Pac Man – but replacing those yellow dots with Ferrero Rochets, proof lies about the studio that we too are doing our bit. Watch this space for our very own TPW workout video – coming to a super market bargain basket near you. Tell-tale signs dotted around the hub are:
Tasty looking traces of Vitamin-C sediments left in the glass there? Probably from a tablet.
Britton loves so we love.
Tracksuit and headband are in the post.
Nice.
Is that a stray pack of Snack-a’s lodged in the filing cabinet? Its a crazy world.

Not too long ago we opened up a small feature where we would post our favourite or worst piece of design for the week. Well just to bend the rules, how about our favourite or worst portrait. This one of mine wins hands down for this week as THE WORST IN HISTORY, and for probably some time to come! Feel free to send us yours. What a corker!
Ristorante Italiano
June 14, 2007
Fallen Angels is one in a chain of lavish restaurants which we are currently re-branding for The Deckers Group. The TPW team were treated to a 3 course meal and drinks on tuesday night, courtesy of the management. To say I am more of a curry person, I thought it served some of nicest italian cuisine I’ve sampled in a long time, coupled with a service which was second to none. The inside was very impressive too; capturing the style of 14th century Italy by using genuine relics and sculptures for the interior.
Dirty Weekend

We’ve uploaded snaps of some of the highlights from last weekend’s Chorley Nissan 2007 4 x 4 Off Road Event. Those of us brave enough to attend really did enjoy driving those Nissan range of vehicles off road!
