Negative convention always gets me going, and right now that's the way business, mass production and commerce works. So, I've started a company called Socks for Happy People to show that things can be done very differently! Check out http://www.socksforhappypeople.com to see how...
Previous to this I told people I worked as a 'designer for society' coming up with multi-disciplinary creative comments and solutions to issues society faced. Heavy huh?
I also producing work for brands like Habitat and DKNY.

Adrienne Frances
Creative Practitioner @ Multistory
Selected this as 1st choice AND is a confirmed attendee
I’m Adrienne.
I work with communities. I work with artists. I think I belong to both. I write. I make things. I write about the things I’ve made.
I like shiny things, handmade things, things with history and things that are new. I always have big plans, and am always busy. I’m terrible on the phone, not bad at 140 characters, and downright awesome at hand-written letters.
I love learning.
I love printing, photography, drawing, writing, sewing, knitting, spinning, welding, and many other ways of making besides.
