THE NEW YEAR & MISTER EIFFEL
By Bobby Riley | December 28th, 2009
For many of us preparing for the new year is all about taking thoughtful inventory of the sobering 2009 including the hot successes and cold failures with hopes to rule out the insidious lukewarm indifference that kills creativity as we take flight into 2010.  Personally, I am working that all out in my world now and also involved in more of the same for Soldier as we enter into our 7th annual retreat, which has a lot to do with self reflection, sense of place and purpose within it.  We will explore many subjects including how to create more from just where we’re at to getting more tapped into our vision and gifting in the arena of consumer experience as a brand design firm.  We will also be mindful of the position to make culture rather than just taking from it, pandering to it or trailing behind it.  And more importantly alligning ourselves relationally with the people and brands doing the same.
In the spirit of preplanning, the love of design, being signifcant, thinking big, lasting power and the brut work required to be truly creative, I hand it over to Mister Eiffel as we all head into 2010. Â The designs below are reproductions of Eiffel’s original designs included in his book “The 300 Meter Tower”, Lemercier publications, Paris 1900. Â Learn more.
Something more/ Something greater/ 2010!
