Monday wake-up
In an exercise to get creative and shake things up a bit, our Visual Communication and Strategy studio assigned individuals to capture an image a day through the duration of the week.

We'll share the design interpretations over a series of posts in the coming weeks.

The article goes on to indicate traditional American suburbs are near carbon-copies of each other; due to a streamlined process of building materials, architectural styles, corporate standards, and outdoor media presence.
Walmart continues commitment to clean energy
Applause to big-box shops like Walmart for continued commitment to clean energy. By 2013, 130 stores, 75 percent of the company’s locations, will run solar. As inhabitat indicates, this could have a very positive ripple effect in a call to action for corporations to come. Read the full article via inhabitat.com
