I came across a very telling video by Jennine Jacob that explains the state of design today. It correlates, through the lens of fashion design, the impact of business driven initiatives on creativity and innovation. She points out that data driven design is creativity oriented towards the past rather than the future, impeding the invention of something new. This neutralizes visionaries, driven by imagination and intuition, who are essential to innovation. This is the state of design across multiple verticals: architecture, vehicles, music composition, fashion and digital products. Check it out: https://lnkd.in/eB7Mjzkj

This graffiti inspired collection features a reinterpretation of iconic graffiti spray cans, reimagined to reflect our brand. Our design serves as a powerful reminder to break free from the monotony of the 9-to-5 lifestyle and reclaim your creative spark. In today's society, it's all too easy to get caught up in the daily grind, sacrificing our passions to mindlessly follow societal norms. But it's time to challenge the status quo, break the cycle of conformity, and ignite the flames of creativity. So go ahead, break the glass, and unleash your creativity. In a world that demands conformity, true liberation lies in embracing your unique voice and creating something extraordinary. #StayWeird #Graffiti #Streetwear

This article offers an insightful look into the history of vintage signs in Baton Rouge.

Congratulations to this year's Cary Magazine Movers and Shakers! This inspiring group includes Tiffany Welton, MGM who recently opened Rbf, Your Authentic Champagne Bar. If you haven't stopped by this downtown Cary champagne, wine, and so much more spot yet, make plans now. Tiffany's vision of creating a safe place to relax shows up in all the touches including interior design. Read more from Tiffany's article: In this divisive world, we must shift, grow, and understand one another more deeply than we have before. We are no longer just adding chairs to the table — we need to build a brand-new table and bring in many more chairs, voices, ideas, and experiences. In every detail of RBF, I purposefully created a safe and diverse space that in turn has brought thousands of women together to connect in a beautiful and authentic way Advice to offer: Be selfish. Love your alone time. Dig deep to know who you are. Drink the good bottle of bubbles. Get the massage. Build strong relationships with your friends — talk money, how to break toxic family cycles, and how to smash the patriarchy together … Golden Girls style. Be raw. Be real. And remember: There is no timeline. You are not behind. You’re only getting started.

IIn an ever-changing world, taking a moment to reflect on our beginnings and the core principles that guided us from the start is truly rejuvenating.

Our journey began with a firm commitment and a dedication that continues to be reflected in the basis of our inaugural delivery. We want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has played a part in elevating the Brothers Produce brand to national prominence within the industry.
