Yeah I never really understood this post. Michael is an ace on a design and personal level. Very soft spoken and sincere guy.

Very true! Yeah, it just seemed weird that we'd be accused of name checking Build so much in an issue when, er, the issue was actually partly a diary written by him about his daily workings/inspirations over a month.

chuffin' hell, it's Josimar.
you should just send him a square go by email big chap, get it over with...

Dude, I double dare you to count every letter in the magazine!
- sinclair0
Eh?

Oh?

I liked that issue.
Nice to see the process work for the logo he was creating.
And since I'm right nosey, it was good to find out about what happened during a work day in the diary.I've admired Michael C. Place for a while. Most of his work blows me away.

Mike is the coolest cat!
- sinclair0
Oh?

Sorry! Didnt know who Jossimar was.. the original poster, of course.
And by the looks of things, that post was quite conservative for him

Cheers R-aI, that was what we were hoping. The work in progress bit went down really well - we hope to do more of that really soon with other work

I need to pick up this issue actually. Is it in the states yet? Hope I didn't miss it!!!

Hey Tommyo, yeah it's a couple of issues back now (looks for the August issue). You can check out our first blog post about the idea of the issue here though:
http://www.creativereview.co.uk/…(note the rather antagonstic nature of the initial comments and then, further down, some responses from people who dont just shit on ideas as soon as they're suggested!)
There's more stuff on Build/A month in the life of project on the blog too...

oh for fucks sake, the poster is entitled to their opinion, don't take it so personally, josimar's Build hatred runs deeper than your magazine issue mate...
- sinclair0
Well it bothered you enough to post. I'm just replying to someone who asked about the issue. And Josimar's opinion wasnt contested- his bullshit was.
- kelpie0
hahahaha as opposed to your whining superiority complex?
- Nairn0
Not to take sides, but where's the bullshit in this opinion..?
Creative Review this month focusses on BUILD - 75 name checks and counting...

i quite like McP's work and CR.
I guess maybe its the over saturation of McP's work on CR in most cases but I think they are well deserved.
- sinclair0
Doesn't come into it. Jesus, you post one fucking thing...
- tommyo0
Huh? '75 name checks and counting...' ?

(Sep 11 07, 07:51)1) He really counted?
2) He's inferring it's a Build-fest, which it wasn't.
That's all.
