You thought your workspace was awesome? Not as awesome as Justin Kemp, I’m afraid. The Massachusetts-based art assistant has installed a sand pit for his feet to rest whilst he works away. His “Surfing with the Sand Between My Toes” concept consists of a wooden box lined with plastic on the bottom, filled with sand. This brilliant concept keeps Justin’s toes feeling great and allows for a relaxing environment to work in.

Justin explains his unconventional work place to us, “The sand is relaxing, but for me, it’s more a symbol of my permanent vacation.  It’s the design of a lifestyle where ‘work’ becomes so satisfying that vacation and retirement become undesirable.  It’s a permanent state of chill.”

“Branding and collateral for a liquor store that focuses on personal service and local community. Collateral includes business cards, promotional posters, coozies, coasters, and packaging for sampler packs. Sections of the six pack can be torn off, turning it into a four pack or two pack. This ensures a longer lifetime for the packaging and increases the portability of the beer case as well. The cases were made with recycled materials, soy-based inks, and zero adhesives in order to lower the environmental footprint.”

I stumbled into design on accident and have been hooked ever since. The intersection of communication and creativity really energizes me and pushes me forward. I ground my work in strong conceptual thinking and an attention to detail. I have a passion for building brands and accept as much freelance as I can manage while focusing on my studies.
