Internal projects I got to make while working at Gus.
Gús Tinned Fish 2025
We wanted a piece of merch that felt useful, memorable, and stupidly simple. Something that felt like Gus.
From concepting to packaging design to tuna tasting, we got to turn Gus the creative agency into Gús the tinned fish cannery.
We were even sold at Snacks & Design and featured in AdAge.
Obrigado!
Brief Encounters2025-2026
Creative partnerships are weird. They don’t really have Hinge for Copywriters and Art Directors.
So we did the next best thing: a speed-dating-esque creative matchmaking experience. Known affectionately as Brief Encounters.
We built a website. We wrote mini briefs. We bought heart-shaped balloons. We watched sparks fly (platonically).
We’re due for session #3 soon. Follow along @gus.biz.
FKA Rivington Tattoo2026
In its previous life, Gus HQ used to be Rivington Tattoo.
So on Friday the 13th, we paid homage to the space and honored the famous tattoo shop tradition by transforming ourselves for one night back into a tattoo shop.
We made a custom flash sheet with Tiny Zaps, which means I got to design my first tattoo (for free!)
