Hey Guys sorry I’ve been MIA for a minute. I have had some technical difficulties, sick family members, and the loss of a friend all in the same week. I am back to regain my focus of building the Laidback brand and later the compound to resemble something similar to the Google, Zurich office. Watch out google, Laidback does design! and you’re in our office. But for real check out the picts of the Google Campus. More picts here
I thought I was fly when FIT let me design a course called Viral Marketing for this Spring semester where I can hang out online for 3 hours and get paid for it, but I got topped. Carnegie Mellon takes the cake, they are offering a course on kicks. Sneakerology 101 will be chronicling the whole sneaker freaker culture. The class is using Bobbito’s Where’d you get those? as a source of reference and the everyday sneaker sites. I love when the classroom goes underground. If Pittsburgh wasn’t so damn far I’d be kickin it that class fo sure!

The Laidback Chick has been working with a few cats lately on some new video footage for the masses. However my girl Donna put me onto this new video creation joint, Animoto and I figured I’d give it a whirl. So this is just a warm up to the new series that we will be introducing next month called “How do you get Laidback? stay tuned for more. Thoughts??..
Big things are rolling about for the Springtime here at Laidback, but limited in quantity. We are preparing to release the Laidback luxurious leather look appliqué Ol Play Pillow.

Pre-order now and you will be able to order either the pillow or the tote for only $150. The store retail price will be at $175. The pillows and totes will begin shipping on April 15. So reward yourself for getting those taxes done on time. Email orders@laidbackhome.com to place your order.
I am a big fan of PR or Project Runway, so when I first saw this SNL clip I was on the floor. All any brand, Laidback included wants to be is Fierce.
One of the books in my ever growing library that has always been a source on inspiration is Subway Art. I just heard via Complex that this book is now digital. It is an interesting direction for the book to go to. Cool on one hand to expose folks, but nothing beats a tangible copy. So if your a fan of graf and street art go cop a copy .
