Apple has excelled in its product category by consistently setting trends in the computer and mobile phone industry. One of the main elements that makes Apple so successful is its minimalist, sleek approach towards design. Apple has decided to step into the furniture industry with a focus on maintaining the Apple style of design. </p> <p>Apple stores in 3 major cities, San Francisco, New York and Miami, will begin setting up Apple computers for demo in Apple’s new line of furniture ‘Comfort.’ Apple associates in-store will provide assistance from the new ‘Genius Bar:Lounge,’ which will be exactly the same as Apple’s original Genius Bar with the only difference being the setting of said interaction. In-store associates will not lounge on the furniture during floor roaming. The furniture is only to be used by customers wanting to demo products or by associates providing assistance to customers. </p> <p>Initially, the furniture will have only a few key characteristics. All of the furniture will be displayed in-store assembled, and will be sold broken in to various pieces for assembly by the consumer. All of the furniture will adhere to a minimalist design approach. All designs will adhere to an ergonomically pleasing aesthetic in line with a combination of IKEA and Apple’s prior overall designs.</p> <p> An essential feature of the Apple Comfort furniture brand will be its design. Keeping in mind that all furniture will have to be put together by the consumer, designs will have to adhere to a minimalist approach. IKEA’s product line would be a general idea for the aesthetics of the Apple Comfort furniture line. All furniture should include a small Apple logo in a conspicuous, but not obnoxious, location. The product line should start using a color swatch similar to all Apple Mac products currently, white, black and brushed grey, with a wider color array to follow depending on the success of the brand extension.</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/409412546http://bryanlives.com/post/409412546Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:24:00 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kycyr6AUIS1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>semicolons: they’re pretentious</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/409401782http://bryanlives.com/post/409401782Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:16:18 -0500<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kycypboJqa1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>my asics ad complete with body copy</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/409400372http://bryanlives.com/post/409400372Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:15:11 -0500<object width="400" height="336"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KvXzCAdIe8I&rel=0&egm=0&showinfo=0&fs=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KvXzCAdIe8I&rel=0&egm=0&showinfo=0&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="336" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent"></embed></object><br/><br/><p>my 123print.com commercial</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/409399374http://bryanlives.com/post/409399374Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:14:26 -0500<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kycygvcGrr1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>geeky apology. i think i would almost immediately fall in love with a girl that gave this to me</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/409393869http://bryanlives.com/post/409393869Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:10:07 -0500<p>last night was awesome. i went over to mom’s house around 4 something to hang out. she just got back into town from visiting an old friend in louisiana. i missed her a lot. mom cooked spaghetti and then we watched RuPaul’s Drag Race. awesome show. i love queen gay men with sharp wit and sharper fashion sense. they are some of the funniest people walking the planet in my humble opinion. anyhoo, before leaving moms i did a mountain of dishes and suffered from an acute case of pruned-hands syndrome. ‘twas awesome. simple and awesome. i love my mom<img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kycy3x3kFl1qzwqbb.png"/></p>http://bryanlives.com/post/409384030http://bryanlives.com/post/409384030Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:02:31 -0500dirk: yeah me and my xbox are like one.<br /> me: how's that?<br /> dirk: it's like my girlfriend. sometimes before i go to the gym i have to ask my xbox if its ok<br /> me: [haha] have a talk?<br /> dirk: [haha] yeah<br /> dirk: like the other night i played call of duty then i went to bed. my xbox was like 'what?! you're not gonna watch a movie?'<br /> me: i think you have a problem. <br /> dirk: yeahhttp://bryanlives.com/post/407766361http://bryanlives.com/post/407766361Tue, 23 Feb 2010 18:11:54 -0500<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ky3ug1erNn1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>ash n los - i love my family</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/399046526http://bryanlives.com/post/399046526Fri, 19 Feb 2010 15:04:00 -0500<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ky3qu02I3K1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>orgullo</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/398944379http://bryanlives.com/post/398944379Fri, 19 Feb 2010 13:46:48 -0500<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx85qdQLKC1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>fake jeans ad</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/367177087http://bryanlives.com/post/367177087Tue, 02 Feb 2010 12:25:25 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx85pfUvdQ1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>concept</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/367176438http://bryanlives.com/post/367176438Tue, 02 Feb 2010 12:24:00 -0500<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx85krnxIM1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>finished product</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/367173409http://bryanlives.com/post/367173409Tue, 02 Feb 2010 12:22:00 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx172l1n6X1qzx6ulo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>a logo I did for the UF kickboxing club</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/360287584http://bryanlives.com/post/360287584Fri, 29 Jan 2010 18:11:09 -0500<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kq33mzgnkK1qzx6ulo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>kinda the new layout</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/189667919http://bryanlives.com/post/189667919Wed, 16 Sep 2009 17:56:59 -0400<embed width="400" height="322" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://i50.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid50.photobucket.com/albums/f335/ashleybuckler/MOV08283.flv"></embed><br/><br/><p>my nephew.</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/182859328http://bryanlives.com/post/182859328Tue, 08 Sep 2009 10:51:42 -0400<p>it has been a little while but i have a valid excuse. i have been quite sick and close to coughing out my lungs on a daily basis. it seems like the worst is over though. i went for a followup this morning and the doctor told everything is looking much better. I was also given a cough suppressant and yadda yadda so hopefully i’ll be good in a few days. in the meantime i’m back to class regularly. design & graphics then strategy, so yeah. this semester has been less about actual up-front work and more about group projects n stuff. different but not bad. <br/><br/> hopefully i can hang out with ash n los tonight. i’m feeling much better. i think im going to go to the mall tonight too. i have a couple of things i want to get. other than that, i have nothing super interesting to share. hopefully these next few days will be more eventful. feel free to click on an ad too for fuck’s sake. my total income from the ads to date is 78 cents. so yeah</p>http://bryanlives.com/post/178891889http://bryanlives.com/post/178891889Thu, 03 Sep 2009 12:52:45 -0400
