Now working almost full-time as a freelancer for Philips - great people, great place to work
Bloondesign as a freelancer! First job - my latest employer: VanBerlo. They simply couldn't live without me ;)
Springtime not for sale yet
The overwhelming attention in the press, the widespread positive feedback for and trust in Springtime as a product and Bloon as a brand have been truly inspiring.
We believe that Springtime is timeless, and we believe that you share that view. And it is this belief that has convinced us that, despite the fact that we're close to final production, have a solid pre-order list and secure financial backings, it is not time for Springtime yet.
Springtime deserves more. It deserves the best quality on every level, in every detail, and should be produced in a truly sustainable manner. To achieve that goal, more attention, more work, and more time are required. So we can perfect what we already have. For now, that means that we've put the Springtime production on hold.
In the meantime, we're working on several other projects, as cool and innovative as Springtime. Make sure you check out bloondesign.com or our Facebook page every once in a while. And rest assured, when it's time for Springtime, you'll be the first to know.
Some paperwork :)
A nice record of publicity for Springtime and Suitcase Symphony
