Partners + Spade = Brilliant


Gotta say I dig Partners + Spade. They create gorgeous advertising for clients like Kate Spade, store designs like the J Crew Liquor Store, films that have been featured at Cannes, books, documentaries with Mike Mills, and they have their own store that sells exclusive items.

Partners & Spade, est. in 2008 by Andy Spade and Anthony Sperduti, is a storefront and studio on Great Jones Street off the Bowery in lower Manhattan. The studio produces films, books, apparel and conceptual products as well as consults on marketing and branding projects for select clients. The shop, open on weekends to the public, showcases a transitional and continuous group show of artwork, collections, found objects, and ideas generated by Spade and Sperduti as well as a changing cast of collaborators.


Oh, Andy Spade, is the co-creator of Kate Spade (with his wife), so there's that little side project as well.

So cool. The many outlets for their talents, yields great work in many forms. So inspired by their talent, and their brazenness to believe they could do it all and break the traditional business models.
