Who would have ever thought that after a few attempts at making your own home/office brew that we could sit down with our team, identify a client that we would LOVE to work with and then WIN them? Brooklyn Brewery, with its headquarters in Williamsburg Brooklyn, has just signed Blenderbox to be their 2010 Digital Agency of Record. Brooklyn Brewery was started in 1987 By Steve Hindy and distributes a number of their signature brews in 14 countries and growing. Blenderbox welcomes the opportunity to work with such a well known and respected brand. With it’s identity instilled by Milton Glaser, best know for his I Love New York campaign, Brooklyn Brewery will be a great brand to add to the Blenderbox client Roster. We look forward to some inspiring brainstorming sessions catalyzed by a Brooklyn Lager or Cookie Jar Porter!

Oooh, Aaah.. Color Scheme Designer 3!

We recently discovered this great online color palette tool that had all of us in design giddy about it. You can create all kinds of palettes for online use, from mono to complementary and beyond. The contrast and saturation levels can be adjusted and previews are available to show you your palette on light and dark page templates. The tool also features an export function which allows you to export your palette to photoshop, HTML/CSS or XML. Additionally, the “Vision Simulation” option lets you preview your palette through the eyes of people with color blindness and other vision impairments, a great feature for assessing accessibility concerns.
