Flashback to 2002: summer break is in full swing. The newest Hot Wheels commercial just played on Nickelodeon and you beg your mom to take you to Toys R Us. Why? Because every 90s kid knew that was the spot for getting the coolest new toys to show off to your friends at your next sleepover.

Fast forward to 2018: Toys R Us closes its doors for the last time. Millennials everywhere mourn. They think, "wtf happened to THE toy store of my generation?!" It wasn't the iconic name that beautifully sums up the brand's sole purpose - to sell toys and only toys. We're not usually fans of descriptive names (because yawn) but in this case, in a time before Googling everything first, it took one look at the store sign to know what you were in for.

For those many millennials who were caught off guard by this loss, this is a love letter to Toys R Us from all of us:
You had one job and you did it well. The days walking down your aisles are forever cherished and remembered by the last generation of "simpler times" shoppers. Thank you for giving us something to spend our allowances on in your prime. Back then, we wished on stars to get that new unicorn stuffy, now we wish on stars to rewind the clock, for you and us both. 💖

On the way home from school you pass the trucks on the side of the road with the big green oblong striped fruits on the back of them. Your parents pick up only one to test for sweetness. You watch as they take that murderous weapon and slice through that weird shape. Red juices start slowly spilling and staining the knife red. Dad slices the fruit into a fun triangle. You think "geometry and food, school's over for the year I thought." You take your triangle with you outside sitting on the porch with your siblings. Each of you spits out the dark black seeds seeing who can reach the farthest with their seeds. This is summer living.

This is the inspiration behind our pink. We wish for those times again.

Once upon a time, we came up with a name for a client and fell head over heels for it. Let us warn you: this isn't a fairytale. The client didn't pick the name (but she did pick a different one so yay!). We understood, we grieved, and we moved on. Because that's the life of a copywriter - sometimes, you get attached to words. So attached, in fact, that you find yourself dreaming about creating a brand with the very name that was rejected just so the world can gaze upon its glory and share in the joy it brings you.

We still find value in sharing our work that didn't make it into the real world because, at the end of the day, if we're proud of it, we want to share it loud and proud.

Zesty Besty gives us citrusy bursts of energy, it gives us loud, it gives us fun. And of course it gives us rhyming which we love.

The moral of the story is: even lemons are worth the share 🍋

This is the story of a girl who never fit in. But don't worry - it's not a sad one (you can put those tissues down now). Because what she once thought was a bad thing turned out to be really, really good.

You see, Zofia (who goes by Zo these days) grew up being that weird, Polish kid in a normal, American world. As she gained confidence in herself over the years, she embraced the weird and found her love of words and all things unusual, which led her on the path to be a boss betch and build her own reality fueled by her vivid imagination.

Now she knows she's exactly where she needs to be: co-running a copywriting studio and not answering to anyone but the power of language. 💖

An ode to language:

Words open doors to new worlds.

Speaking things into reality is kind of our thing. Without language, we would cease to exist.

Can you imagine a world without words? Sounds pretty quiet, and we don't want any of that.

Communication is a beautiful thing, and we have the honor of being the messenger.

We are the word people.

Our mission is to heighten people's sentences through the magic of language.

Even his name is copywriting gold.
How inventive of his parents!
Growing up he thought "ugh I hate my name, why can't I be like everyone else?" Let's just say that sentiment is an element of the past. One introduction, memory forever. Everyone remembers him from a single introduction. That's impact.

He believes in the different, the unique, the outlier because that's what he is. He brings this energy to you and your brand. Why fit in when you can stand out? He can't answer the how to fit in question because he never did, doesn't, and never will.

You should want the same thing. If that's the case, then he'll be happy to guide you on your journey of uniqueness.

Let's not fit in together.

The year is 2004.

You just finished signing your last friend's yearbook as you hear the final bell ring and a cheer erupt from your classmates. The school year is officially over. Summer break has commenced; life is good.

That's our brand's energy. 🌞

Lingua has two meanings in Italian: language, and more literally, tongue 👅

The name comes from our shared love of language and passion for bringing your brand language to life.

We just HAD to bring that to life in an iconic...icon. So here it is.

You didn't expect us to make a new color palette without naming it, did you? 🌈

Meet: School's Out.

That's our energy right now and always.

As 90's kids, nothing beats the nostalgia of the end of the school year and the beginning of summer.
It's an exciting time with so much to look forward to, just like how we're feeling about our new direction.

And of course, we couldn't help but sprinkle some alliteration into the names because that's how we do!

What's your favorite end-of-school-beginning-of-summer-break memory? 💖

BIG news 👀 we are rebranded, refocused, and refreshed!

BIG changes: we design words. That's it.

We have decided to zero in on our favorite service and become a 100% copy studio.

What does that mean?
If you need a name, custom-designed word, tagline, mission statement, movie title, song name, etc., we have the words to bring it to life.

BIG new motto: word out, nerd out. ✌🏿✌🏼
