Great to see our wonderful client Quilt featured on HGTV's "Celebrity IOU" with the Property Brothers, Drew and Jonathan Scott. Go Quilt!
When skateboarding legend Tony Hawk set out to surprise his friend Tim Olson by transforming his detached garage into a mid-century modern editing studio, he faced a common problem: extreme temperatures that made the space almost unusable. That’s where Quilt came in. 🛠️Teaming up with Drew Scott and Jonathan Scott (aka the Property Brothers) on HGTV's "Celebrity IOU" Tony helped turn Tim's garage from a neglected storage room into a workspace where he can edit skate videos, repair skateboards, and relax. ❄️ The Property Brothers chose Quilt to keep Tim's new office comfortable year-round. Quilt is perfect for single spaces like garages, and it’s also super efficient with smart features like occupancy detection, schedules, and control from anywhere via the app. ✨ Tim’s new space now features a sleek Quilt Indoor Unit with a customizable white oak panel, blending seamlessly into his mid-century modern aesthetic. It also comes with a built-in accent light to illuminate the new gallery wall. Whether it's a single room or your entire house, Quilt upgrades any space into a comfortable, creative haven. To see how Quilt can elevate your home, watch the latest episode of "Celebrity IOU" on HGTV, Max, and Apple TV, and learn more here 👉 https://lnkd.in/ggTy9EYQ

Should brand names with purposeful misspellings never exist? We wouldn’t go so far as to say that, but Zinzin always supports the idea that it must make 100% sense to the brand. In other words, the name — even the way it’s spelled — must always support the brand positioning. Shout out to Lana T. for her 2023 story for Fast Company. It highlights recent, published research that finds consumers are less likely to choose brands with cleverly misspelled names. #naming #brandnames https://lnkd.in/gtYe2huk
