Google for Doodle - New Zealand Edition

noreply@blogger.com (Derrick) — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 22:44:00 +0000

Google is awesome! If you're in New Zealand and you go on Google, you just might catch a very rare Google logo. This one was designed by Google's own Dennis Huang as usual, but by a little girl by the name of Amelia Abbott from Nelson.

The search engine giant held a competition to see what New Zealand youth find particularly Kiwi. All of the entries were voted on and the winner won the prize of having her doodle displayed on Google New Zealand's home page for one day in 2010.

Genetically Modified Rice Looming Ahead

noreply@blogger.com (Derrick) — Wed, 27 May 2009 05:45:00 +0000

Rice, a global staple crop is under threat it seems. The European Union is at a precipice. In only a few weeks the EU must decide to allow GM Rice access to EU nations, their fields, and supermarket shelves. The EU has become a powerful global opinion, and its actions will likely influence those of other countries around the world.

This actually happened a couple of weeks ago, but it's been really hectic with all of the last-minute holiday planning and surprises people have been asking for. OlivierLex gained a new business card design, banner design, and letterhead design. They're all in the Portfolio.

Since I'm in New Zealand, I would have liked to have been the first to wish you all a Happy New Year. I'll settle for doing it now. Olivier Designs wishes you a fantastic 2009!

Scraplife: E-waste in Pakistan

noreply@blogger.com (Derrick) — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 10:52:00 +0000

Wow! What an eye-opener. We've been hearing a lot about e-waste lately. Many big-name companies including Apple, Panasonic, Sony, and many more, have taken measures to reduce their carbon footprint. Greenpeace touches on this hot topic with an exposé on e-waste. You just bought a brand new computer; it looks fantastic. But, what happened to the old one that doesn't work anymore? Robert Knoth follows your trashed tech and shows you where it ended up along with what effects it's had on environment where it's been dumped. Get the full story with words and photographs by Robert Knoth.

OlivierLex Goodies

noreply@blogger.com (Derrick) — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 12:50:00 +0000

It may be winter in the Northern Hemisphere right now, but down south, we're lookin' at sunny days. That's right, my friends. In this part of the world, Santa Clause wears jandals (or flip-flops for those of you not familiar with the Kiwi lexicon.) OlivierLex is getting into the spirit of the new year. Olivier Designs created a slew of new products for the company, with more still to come. With a new year comes new business. OlivierLex always puts their best foot forward, and will definitely turn some heads with their new custom-designed stationary and informative business presentation. These flashy new updates and more will be added to the portfolio for your viewing pleasure very soon.

Happy Halloween....Again!

Just because I like you guys so much, I went and made you this card.

Happy Halloween!

noreply@blogger.com (Derrick) — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 17:45:00 +0000

Bah! Welcome Olivier Designs fans, welcome to my spooktacular lair. (maniacal laughter ensues...) Here's wishing all of you happy trick-or-treating and great costume fun today. Remember, Halloween has become a product of the commercial machine, so it's okay to get your spook on, or just to have a little fun, even if Halloween isn't really your thing.

(.....eerie music....) Okay, it's getting creepy now. Freak ya later; Happy Halloween!

noreply@blogger.com (Derrick) — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 23:24:00 +0000

Hello everyone! Welcome to the new Olivier Designs! I look forward to hearing from many of you and your friends very soon.

The Blog is Working!

New Site is Almost Up

noreply@blogger.com (Derrick) — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 21:04:00 +0000

This is the first blog post. Although the blog is not yet up on the main site, this is still "blog-worthy," according to some - namely me. The new Olivier Designs should be up and running and ready for launch by tomorrow (Wednesday the 23rd of September 2008.) There are still a couple wrinkles I need to iron out, but it's really come together. I'm really proud of what Olivier Designs has become.
