A mad 48hour challenge

I'm still blaming Lynsey - it was her idea, she created the 'monster' as we say in the Studio!
Anyway, here's the plot so far - We're designer's, we thrive on deadlines so we've created one for ourselves and a few design mates. 2 days ago we set ourselves a really crazy challenge as part of the Cardiff Design Festival 09 celebrations.
The challenge was to create an 8 page tabloid size newspaper focused on the design scene in Wales..... All in 48 hrs ..... From sourcing articles, writing features, editing copy, collecting, compiling and taking photos, designing layout and style and of course coming up with the publication title.

So off to print it's gone and hot off the press will be Design Up Your Street where we talk Design in Wales, Design Beyond Wales, Design in your Community and Design Up Your Street.

Free publication out this weekend. Copies available from the WonderCulture Designers Market in Chapter, Cardiff and from other venues around the city.

Thanks to the Hoffi boys for advise and an extra MacBook, an extra pair of hands and some keen design eyes!
