The Brand Gap


My favorite book on branding is The Brand Gap by Marty Neumeier. Last year, it was passed onto me as a PDF and I love not only how clever it is, but also that the advice is easy to comprehend. The diagrams and corresponding text never leave you feeling like you need to be an expert to digest it. Here are some of my favorite out-takes from the 170 pages:

How has your weekend been so far? Here in Portland, It’s sunny and beautiful, without a rain cloud in sight! It’s the first nice weekend we’ve had in months! I just had a really inspiring chat with Gala and now it’s time to get some work done.

I’d like to thank everyone who made it out to the art show at Nemo HQ on Friday. It was by far the biggest show yet with attendance pushing 500! The combination of installation pieces and brightly colored paintings are pretty stunning in person and definitely got everyone talking.

P.S. My brother and I just signed a bunch of papers earlier in the week and if everything goes as planned, it’s going to be pretty awesome. Cross your fingers for us!

Peace, Love & Nubbiness,



I (Still) Love Twitter.
