It’s no secret that Carrot loves Brooklyn, especially the booming Digital District here in DUMBO. The contrast of new media agencies and cutting-edge technology startups against historic, cobblestone streets running beneath landmark bridges is pretty darn inspirational. We’re loyal to our nabe and happy to give back, so when the opportunity came up do some pro-bono identity work for the Brooklyn Bridge Park effort, we got excited. Carrot was approached by the Campaign for Brooklyn Bridge Park organization to create… Continue Reading

The first-ever iPhone app that delivers a world of Onion headlines directly to your Oxford shirt pocket. Onion aficionados know the true essence of any story lies in its headline. In fact, many headlines are so brilliant they stand alone without any article associated with them. We worked closely with… Continue Reading

Ladies and Gentlemen, we’re officially Hollywood big shots. Well, almost. After much anticipation, Carrot Creative has completed our first film site, and what better way to lose our film site virginity than with the cinematic adaptation of Tucker Max’s New York Times bestseller, I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell?

I had the pleasure of attending a NextNY event last Wednesday with Carrot Creative’s own Kristin and Maury in Time Square. The Topic – Does Design matter to Startups? The discussion was led by designers Crystal Beasley, Kevin Kearney, Nicole Tecco Reece, Dagny Prieto, and Stefan Lawrence. The meet-up was to help entrepreneurs better understand the role of a design team (often looked at as a wild, type-loving troupe of hippies) in the greater scheme of things while running a business.
So, will bringing on designers really matter, or does having your product or service “work” outweigh how it looks? Here are some insights from the discussion.

TR3 released their latest album “Radiance” in January, and we had the pleasure of assembling the artwork for the band. Tim Reynolds had a pretty clear concept in mind, featuring an abstract photo he took himself while on tour with DMB last summer. It was a ton of fun hanging out with Tim, Mick, Dan & Tour Manager Fluffy (and Marcus Eaton Trio) at a show this past Fall, as we started work on the project, and a pleasure to… Continue Reading

A project that wrapped up a little over a year ago is in the spotlight today! HUE HD Webcam is featured as today’s woot! item. From name, brand, promotion & marketing concepts to software UI, to the actual product design itself, we had a blast with the unique opportunity to design the complete kit. We have posted about our work with HUE HD Webcam in the past, and some of its press (TIME & O (Oprah) Magazine features). So if… Continue Reading
