In 1991 Parmar Imports Limited was established and moved into the Importing business, importing premium quality goods from carefully selected well run factories throughout the Far East. We worked long and hard with our factories to produce the best quality garments, using only the best fabrics, trimmings and accessories.

I love this picture. Very simple shot. I took this with a simple Sony Cybershot in 2006.

Call me soppy but I love this short film.  Created by New Zealand agency Publicis Mojo for Schweppes towards the end of last year, the film is part of a new campaign to reposition Schweppes as a soft drink for adults.

Filmed in Dubai over 5 days and nights by Philip Bloom, this incredibly beautiful time-lapse short is well worth watching. The soundtrack is beautiful too.

Have you just began to look at a new marketing plan?  How much time have you spent looking at your previous marketing plans and measuring their success? If you did extremely well, chances are you should do something  just as fantastic again.

If you didn’t do as you hoped, then you better do something remarkable.

I don’t normally advocate looking into the past, but in this case I make an exception. Don’t be blinded by ignorance.  Just because you believe what you have to offer is the best doesn’t mean they can see the whole picture.  Get out there and make some noise.

Nearly 7 years ago, Seth Godin delivered this iconic presentation and it is still completely relevant today.  If you have not yet discovered Seth Godin, I would suggest that you pop straight over and sign yourself up for his daily newsletter. Never before have I received so much information within so little text. He is quite simply, the genius we all would like to be. He is also a bit geeky, and yet he is mesmerising.  See for yourself.

Having a meeting whilst watching the History Channel in HD is great, you get to see all sorts of things you wouldn’t normally notice (I have a normal TV unfortunately, so 50′ HD TV is still somewhat exiting to me).  There is nothing quite like good coffee, good conversation and Quantum Physics or is it Mechanics, who knows? Its all made up stuff but its still impressive.

The first thing I noticed that they mentioned is that Universe is Flat and its has been proven, awesome!  They did explain how, but I still had no idea how they were able to prove it, apparently they used lasers…again.  The next thing I heard them talking about is how there could be many different universes all existing at the same time. One theory was that as two Universes collide, they leave behind another universe, sort of like 2 Giant Cosmic Bubbles colliding and then heading off in their separate ways again.  What is left is part of universe 1 and part of universe 2 all mixed up to create a new universe with a life of its own and a unique existence. Very simple… in Theory.

It did get me thinking about what happens when a designers world collides with a clients world. Designers are not like a lot of suppliers. I mean in most part an electricity company, a delivery company and so on, will have a very limited impact upon its customers, but a designer, well that’s in most part a completely different thing.  We spend hours with clients trying to interpret their business and creating something of beauty and function…

From now on, I will be thinking of my Giant Cosmic Bubbles.
