Flint + Lake House = Country Living
December 17th, 2010The Lake House is an award-winning hotel, restaurant and day spa located in idyllic Daylesford. Chef extraordinaire Alla Wolf-Tasker runs the incredible hatted restaurant that is a destination for foodies from around the world. An 80 minute drive from Melbourne, Lake House prides itself on maintaining a close relationship with the local producers and farmers who grow a diverse array of fruit, vegetables and meat in the region. This focus on authenticity and fresh, seasonal produce and experiences, is one of the businesses’ greatest strengths.
Flint could not be more excited to be working on the development of Lake House’s new website. In preparation of the work over the coming months on the website, some lucky Flintsters were treated to a personal tour and delicious lunch while brainstorming ideas to make the website truly reflective of this amazing destination. We will keep you informed of when this website launches.
Change is in the air…..
December 13th, 2010Our culture blog has been a great place for us to share the place we call our home away from home but as we head into 2011, we have decided to re-think how we share and connect our Collingwood studio with the wider community. So we have decided to move our culture blog to a new home on facebook. It’s pretty modest at the moment, but we think that it won’t take long for it to grow into an eclectic homage to all things that Flint embraces, including cultural happenings, event listings and opinion polls.
However, this blog will not be shutting down by any means. Instead, it will be a platform for news on our latest projects in the studio as well as a place for us to provide an insight on what it is like to be a boutique digital agency in Melbourne, muse about all things digital and give you our two cents on what trends are running hot on the web (and what are merely gimmicks). Make sure you stay tuned!!!!
Themed Flint Fridays: So Frenchy So Chic and High Tea
November 24th, 2010While we are happy to put the week behind us with a few beers and good old chips and dip, we occasionally have a few people who think outside of the box when it comes to Flint Fridays.
Matthieu, our new team member, had his first run of Flint Friday and together with Sacha, they pulled off a French-themed Flint Friday inspired by his homeland. Matthieu brought in some homemade crepes (made with the help of his lovely girlfriend) which we covered with lemon juice and sugar or Nutella, although Sam was the only one brave enough to try both combinations at once. With a couple bottles of sparkling wine, cheese and “French Fries” in the mix, we certainly had a feast to be remembered.
Miranda and Queenie decided to go the way of the Country Women’s Association and held a high tea with cucumber sandwiches, scones and Pimms. It went down well with everyone and the Pimms was a nice way to welcome in the warmer days ahead.
We’ve added some more happy snaps on Flickr so you can see how they pulled it off.
Did someone say cheese?!

Home Improvements
November 18th, 2010
With big, tall ceilings in the studio, our walls at Flint were a big blank canvas when we first arrived at Easey Street in Collingwood but with a splash of blackboard paint and contrasting feature walls, things were starting to come together.
Last week, we put on a few of the finishing touches to the studio with the decals that we purchased from Blik. Paying homage to classic video games, our walls were adorned with decals of classic games like Pong and Space Invaders. Have a peek at the results on our flickr page.
Time to start thinking about christmas parties!
August 27th, 2010It seems to be racing through the year. What seems like such a short while ago we were in our Keele Street studio giving each other ‘kringle pressies and heading off to one of the best parties I have ever been to.
Last year Flint’s christmas party was held at a roof-top venue in beautiful clear sunny weather with a pool, boat full of pillows, open bar with a bbq and “miami vice” dress style theming. To make things interesting, Oli who had just started with Flint brought along his 50mm and took some unreal photos, capturing hero shots of each team member which was themed into a 2010 calendar to document the occasion.
Yesterday we went to the Rose Pub in Collingwood for a pub lunch and Miranda raised the topic and has got me thinking; how can we follow up such an event? Our project manager Andréa who has a background in event management took the reins last year to put together such an awesome night planned around the miami vice theme (again, kudos Dr dréa!). So what would be the theme this year? What is the ultimate way to celebrate such a big year for Flint? The team at heart has an inner-child passionate about doing things exciting as a group and everyone gets involved socially.
So, there is 3 months to get the party sorted, and the best venues book out fast. We have to establish the venue and the theme and any associated activities. There is a chance with the upcoming positions at flint that the team could have grown (!). Either way, this has got me thinking about some of the awesome team we have and some of the awesome things we have done in the past.
High Calibre Marketing – a YGOW event
August 17th, 2010A big thanks to Rory and the Young Guns of Wine Festival, who invited Andrea (account manager extraordinaire), Miranda (our new digital account manager) and Queenie (our new studio co-ordinator) to attend the “High Calibre Marketing” conference at Comme. It was too early for wine but they served a beautiful morning tea and the girls spent the morning listening to a number of interesting speakers who spoke about the impact of social media in their respective marketplaces.

What better way to jam on new interactive ideas on a Friday arvo, than with some good old fashioned fairy bread. Puts a smile on every face :)
