Our Goals (well, some of them)

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 13:21:00 -0400

“In this economy”, “economy, ECONOMY” …We’ve all heard it. We’ve all said it. Most of us are tired of it! I know we are. YES- the economy is not that of the roaring 20’s, however we are redirecting our thoughts. The term, “Thinking outside of the Box” has never been so prevalent. We have brainstormed, drawn sketches and diagrams on countless restaurant napkins and tablecloth papers, we have laughed, yelled, sat in silence - all to think of ways to market and rise up in “this economy”. Personally, I think we’ve done a very god job! We’re gearing everything towards simplifying the complicated. START BIG! Then, trickle it back down to manageable steps and actions.

We are most excited about a non-profit event that we will be holding in the near future. I can’t give all of the details yet, but I can tell you that the research did require us to look up lyrics to a few of our most beloved Christmas carols! In short, we’re Decking the Halls with Boughs of Style …. Stay tuned for more!

Trade Shows, Absence and Everything Else

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:18:48 -0400

GDE has been, apologetically so, quite absent from our beloved blog as of late. Well, that’s all about to change. We have been focusing on redirecting our focus, re-evaluating our strengths & desires, and really trying to focus on getting what we want. We’re really excited for the direction that this company is going to take. Join us for the ride, there are sure to be some funny, informative, creative & inspirational entries to follow!

In the midst of this re-evaluation, we successfully completed the 30th Annual World Airline Entertainment Association Conference & Exhibition. (We know, that’s a very long title; here at GDE, we call it WAEA). We had two clients this year for this show. Tomorrow, we’ll post pictures - we’ll tell you stories - we’ll fill you in on our crazy last two months!

For now, we wanted to re-introduce ourselves, and tell you to STAY TUNED! We are back, and we are better than ever!

Till tomorrow -

Cheers!

We found Marcel Wanders a while ago when this hotel was still 3D Renderings. We just found the photos of the vision as it has come to life. GDE knows that THIS is edgy and inspiring design. GDE -loves- Marcel Wanders and his creations!
