Obama goes Bauhaus

Today’s visit of Obama in Berlin is graced by a very design savvy hommage to the Bauhaus movement. Just the latest genius strike of Obama’s amazing design & marketing team’s efforts.

Just pretend it’s all OK.

Politics will not make their way onto this blog. As any professional in the service industry learns sooner or later, it’s never a good idea to share our political view points with our clients.

Yet it feels that a lot of creatives are inspired by politics and that is one of the goals of this blog. Some of us are outraged, some are encouraged. Of course, some of us feel like ‘It’s All Okay’.

I saw a truck with the above bumper sticker this weekend and I just had to ‘shoot it’. What a great political design and statement. It encouraged me to view ‘Zeitgeist, the movie’ another time. Given the anticipated release of ‘Zeitgeist – Addendum’ is close and the movie itself just celebrated its first anniversary after seeing its release online, I feel that still too many people have not watched it yet. I do not necessarily agree to any of the political viewpoints, or statements, but then again, how could I possibly agree to what the media is dishing up every day? Get outraged, get inspired.
