As you enter our offices, the first thing you see to your left is our design team. As if in a creative bubble, all the girls @ design spend their days between glass walls. Tough the previous statement sounds rather constraining, in reality it’s anything but. The girls use the glass walls as a sounding board with the rest of us and as a mean of communication in very creative ways. By drawing up ideas, messages and figures, they share their ideas with those willing to give their two cents on their most recent doodles.
Upon entering the team’s “lair”, we find two parallel lines of desks, facing opposite directions, three chairs and desks in each line. A wealth of intriguing trinkets – pictures, books, stuffed animals – fill in the space between each of the girl’s places. These items make the rest of the workspaces in the office look rather sterile (though they are by no means boring!).
The charming, all girls design team is comprised right now by 4 members. The team leader, Claudia, who has tremendous experience in diverse areas of design, is like the “mother hen” of the group. Debora and Ana Laura, both with amazing design talent, are coached by Claudia, in their endeavors. They’re always given freedom to use their creativity tough, as it’s important for them to be able to imprint their own particular signature ideas onto their assigned projects.
Last but not least, we have Laura, our French intern, who activities are a mix of creative content development and business related activities. She’s from Bordeaux, and studies Communication back in France. She’s a perfectly fluent Spanish and English speaker and a very amicable girl.
Stay tuned for the second part of this installment, focusing on the work process the design team!
