Main Street Life


Ok, so we here at Brand R embrace growth.Naturally this comes with acquisition of valuable long term assets. It is our honor and pride to have under our name an apartment in MSL (Main Street Life) in J.h.b. 


MSL is a block of flats, well maybe not just a block of flats. It’s a block of ‘’studio lifestyle apartments’’ just outside the Johannesburg CBD. They sell as One bedroom studio’s, and Penthouses.



two bedroom studio’s (fully furnished or unfurnished) 



 These range from R280 000 to just over R980 000. Of the many features (can’t list them all) they have:
- The Bioscope (independent cinema)
- A Rooftop outdoor event arena (under construction)
- The 10 Decades Art hotel (each room designed by a different designer with theme)
- The malva store showcases creative talent in fashion, novelties and household design.
- 5 Exhibition spaces (1 per floor)
5 Studio workshop spaces (1 per floor)
Multi-disciplinary art and design installations throughout passageways
-          A splash pool, a bar and small gym/ Yoga centre
-          Dance and Music Rehearsal Space
Theatre Performance and Cinema Exhibition venues
-          On site DVD and bicycle rentals. Fresh vegetable delivery service
-          Viewing decks of the city. High Speed Internet, with free Wi-Fi in selected areas
-          CCTV and 24 hour security
Biometric Access Control
-          its own online media channel www.mainstreetlife.tv.
The man to thank for this futuristic development is a young hardworking and innovative Jonathan Liebmann.



This is basically a creative space where they are creating a ‘’work, live and play here’’ culture which is exactly what is happening (I would know). Literally, just down the road is the Arts on Main, the new arts haven for J.h.b creatives which is a combination of galleries and restaurant. Yet another earlier development by Jonathan. Ok, we’re done, rather enjoy the link http://www.mainstreetlife.co.za/. It’s been real, till we talk again.

Re_definition

So we got a chance to work with Onexus they commissioned us to do a logo and flyer design for them.


They have a subdivision under them aimed at doing gigs in Durban called 
Re_definition, but any way here is the Logo they chose.
 
And here is the flyer design we did for them.



T.H.O.T.S is one of the coolest bands that you will ever get the chance to see perform ever. Heir lead vocalist is out of this world.  Check them out at UNIT 11, by skybar, in the Alley by Lizzard just off Stamford hill Rd. The lineup hasT.H.O.T.S, LUMINATI with P-Kuttah, The Nutscratcher and Deejay Lab

The F Word

We had a laid back weekend this weekend after a week of exams, work deadlines and not feeling well.  Nonetheless we want to apologize for our absence.

Secondly in our time of recovering we spent a lot of time in front of the T.V  and fell in love with the BBC Lifestyle channel particularly a cook show called The F word hosted by Gordon Ramsay and saw some crazy food dishes.




Our quest is to be freaking great dishes.  Gordon Ramsay is a genious with the dish even though we still love Mr Oliver but this man has great dishes.


Do yourself a favor and check out some of these recipes and try something new to amaze the people you dine with.
