SAVE THE DATE! From Museums to Sex Shops by Base | Base @ Parsons, AIGA/NY | March 14th, 6.30-8.30PM

Editorial  | 02/16/12 | 

Everybody likes a good story. So what’s better than a good story? Many good stories! Join Base for its first ever solo speaking engagement on the US soil. Spend an evening with Base founding partners Dimitri Jeurissen and Thierry Brunfaut for the tales behind why the studio consciously chose early on to “specialize in not specializing“. In a fireside chat environment that would do FDR proud, hear about the challenges of not specializing in a given field, opening multiple offices around the world, and what it takes to transform a five-person, familial partnership into a professional company.

Boys, it stands for something you’ll enjoy!

This NY story started with the must-have French toast and PJ Harvey’s album, “Let England Shake”. It was with their second track, “The last living Rose”, playing in the background and a lot of funky New Yorkers on the first row, that Victoria Bartlett presented her “VPL” Autumn Winter Collection last Saturday. The show was pretty inspiring!
