Cover Of Brand r Magazine's First Edition

Here is the civer to our first edition.

BARISTA SHOWDOWN

Every once in a while we are invited to experience out of the ordinary events.
Colombo has been the most reliable in terms of impressing and satisfying us.
They did it again this friday, this time it was a Barrista show down.

We were in the presence of people who saw a cappuccino as more than a 
product for consumption, but an artform to be appreciated in the process of its creation.
Here are the a few pictures from the event.

A group of coffee shops like Vida Cafe,  Woolworths, Bean Green, Colombo and Durant Cafe brought their A game for this show down.

Thanda Kunene


This is one of those big ups moments. We'd like to introduce you to our resident Photographer. The fashion designer, music collecting, image loving Thanda Kunene, but you can call him Thanda the Curator.

The Curator


 
He has been a great deal of help to us. Introducing us to new music and ideas we originally overlooked. Plus he never really says nop to covering an event. Since he isn't mus\ch of a fan of telling people about himself you should follow his blogs: iamflake & noneisforever 

Fork, Knife & Glass - Dinner Club


For those not in the know. In our silence (Which we greatly apologise for) we have been on the look out for the most refreshing activities that Durban could offer us. .One such event we are proud to present as a Brand r sister project Piloted by Russel Hlongwane is the Fork, Knife & Glass - Dinner Club hosted by Russel Hlongwane.
Every first wednesday of the month we meet at a selected restaurant to dine and relax with a group of like minded people. A breath of fresh air from the over flooding idea that everyone needs loud music, excessive alcohol intake to have fun.
Here are the pictures to the first two sessions we've attended.
