The Cup O’Dreams Championship

This past week we finished an experimental productivity program that we like to call The Dream Incentive program. With the goal of making the design agency even more productive and efficient, our team set out to keep 85% of all projects at or under the number of hours budgeted for that work. Through the employee […]

Free Printable Holiday Bingo

There’s a lot to be excited to be about in December…. and then there’s the annual office holiday party.

A SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE TO SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN GUIDES

I’m not sure if it’s the fact that I can now see my breath as I go out for my lunch break or if I’ve finally grown up enough to actually read articles on the internet (as opposed to just looking at funny cat pictures); either way, I’ve been enjoying reading several blogs. I know, […]

Designing for War with National Geographic Channel

ST8MNT has a longstanding relationship with National Geographic Channel, and we relish the opportunity to collaborate with their in-house team to design fresh creative for such captivating subject matter.

HOT CHEETOS & TAKIS

Do yo-self a favor and watch this video by Y.N. RICH KIDS. It’s the best rap song in the world. SNACKS! SNACKS! SNACKS! CRUNCH! via NPR’s The Two Way Blog Oh and check out Jimmy Fallon’s Downton Sixbey if you got a minute. It’s hilarious.

Theme Park-Design Graveyard

With what looks like an economic renaissance in Nashville, the city is unapologetically growing into its own. The addition of the Music City Convention Center and Gaylord Opryland/Dolly Parton’s $50 million theme park investment are two of the biggest recent announcements with the ability to influence the economic climate of our steadily growing southern city.

DRIVE a stake thru my heart (90’s Buffy style)

  Mike Horowitz is the man of the week. At least when it comes to internet design dork-dom. He has bestowed upon the world the best / most clever poster for Drive yet. If you haven’t seen the movie it’s a  film noir throw back flick that is violent and includes a Hammer (wink wink). Check […]

Stay Gold Ponyboy

This past weekend the ST8MNT crew attended AIGA Nashville‘s Case Awards, and Think Tank conference.

We racked up some really great awards from the Nashville design community friday night during the Case Awards event, and […]

The Contributor – Nashville’s Only Street Newspaper

This past Saturday ST8MNT as a whole attended AIGA Nashville’s ThinkTank conference. Speakers like Jessica Hiesch (Daily Drop Cap / JessicaHiecsh.com), Sean Adams (Adams & Morioka), and Jina Bolton (Sushi & Robots) all gave us some insight into their worlds of design. While we were collectively inspired by all of the designers – Local Nashvillian […]
