Connecting people to create a better future

 

Burst! and the Fraser Valley Employment and Support Services Co-operative (FVESSC) are collaborating on a web project that is sure to bring positivity and networking opportunities to the community. The FVESSC provides career pathways and opportunities for both job seekers and employers. We are excited to start this project, and even more excited to be part of a something that aids in connecting people of the community to create jobs and careers. 

Burst! x Preakness Group x Cambridge House

 

This past weekend, Vancouver was home to the Cambridge House mining conference. Exploration companies from around the world gathered together at Canada Place to showcase their businesses, and network with likeminded industry professionals. Burst! was lucky enough to design a tradeshow display for the Preakness Group, and the results were stunning. We thank everyone from the Preakness Group for allowing us to be a part of this amazing event, and we look forward to working with them for many years to come!

Working outdoors

'Twas several days before Christmas..

...when all through the Burst! office, every creature was stirring, especially Oscar, the puppy was whirring!

Over the past week, the Burst! team has been hard at work assembling batches of French Macaroons, baked especially for our favorite Vancouverites, by Pastry Chef, Simon Rainer. It?s our way of saying thank you for making 2011 such a memorable year! Here's to a wonderful holiday season and fantastic New Year!

Merry Christmas everyone!

From the Burst! team

Happy Holidays!

This year we decided to head to Guu in Gastown for our annual holiday feast. If you haven’t been there, it’s definitely a must try restaurant! I think we ordered one of everything on the menu and then some. It was absolutely delicious! We won’t even get into the drinking situation….Sake it to me baby!

Wishing you and yours a great holiday season, full of the most important things in life.

Burst! Crew

Welcome Mariko!

Burst! would like to formally welcome our newest intern Mariko Iwazaki to the team! Mariko comes to us from the land of the rising sun, and brings to the table a large bag of design talent. She previously worked at the exquisite Drawing and Manual studio in Japan, and has looked to broaden her horizons. She has been in Vancouver since April, which was just in time to enjoy “a beautiful west coast summer”. As every female we know, she loooves to shop, and also enjoys sitting down to savor a slice of one of Vancouver’s famous cheesecakes. Mariko has been a delight to have in the office day in and day out, and we are looking forward to witnessing more of her unique and creative ideas.

Le Coup De Coeur Francophone

Le Centre Culturel contacted Burst! to cultivate an image that could be used to articulate the activities and feel of the Vancouver Symphonique.

With the use of many image elements such as people, instruments and fireworks, we were able to create a unified icon/graphic, presented with a minimalist approach.

The hands raised in the air represent a multicultural setting that equal the three simplistic instruments, and the fireworks take on the representation of the event/celebration.

If you would like experience this event, it will take place on Saturday December 10, 2011  @ the UBC Chan Center for the Performing Arts, 6265 Crescent Road, Vancouver. For tickets or reservations please call (604) 736-9806.
