Long time no hear….sorry but we were busy moving furniture in and out and setting up projector screens, AV systems and other tecchie things to make sure the Accelerator is what it promises. All done now- the last trip to Ikea has been made and ended in the purchase of 13 bins! The GMG team is settling in nicely and the first 4 desks have also been taken…but more about this some other time.

This week the space has been host to some very special guests. Jess Davis and Rachel Johnson - tutors from the HND/C Graphic Design and Multimedia course at Gloucestershire College - along with a dozen students, have been painting our big white wall. It’s looking nice.

Unfortunately the new space has been invaded by a army of chairs. They are in complete command, however formal negotiations have begun and we hope to be able to work with them in perfect harmony once we have agreed the cross-cutting themes and value-added deliverables. If only the desks had come at the same time, they’d have been much happier then.

The carpet is down and what a difference it has made. The space now feels habitable and with the furniture arriving tomorrow, we’ll all very excited about moving in very soon.

So we’ve been to Ikea and spec’ed the furniture. Now that might sound like the whole place is going to be sandwich board tables and ropey shelving units that will fall apart in a few weeks, but we’re hoping we’ve made some good decisions, both in terms of design, durability and functionality. And at a price that no traditional office furniture supplier could get anywhere near. That said, Ikea does make you feel dirty and used. This ad campaign is awesome, don’t think the British censors let it through?

The battle for a carpet which will not make us feel sick has been won. This is the black [speckled] hard-wearing stuff that will be stuck to the floor soon. In an ideal world we’d have polished the concrete, but this will soak up some of the echo and be soft under foot.

We’re now preparing to launch the marketing of The Accelerator, though we’re a bit stuck on the name. While we liked The Accelerator to start with, it’s beginning to feel a little dated already: back to the drawing board, though it’ll do as a working title for the moment.

After a few weeks of hard work by the Film Studio’s maintenance crew, the space is now looking habitable. We are now sourcing carpet (dark grey) and desks (white) and chairs (black and white) and something special for the big white wall. Needless-to-say Telewest are proving difficult to deal with, though our current thinking is that we won’t have too many land lines… it’ll be a mobile and Skype focused zone.
