STUDIO OF THE WEEK

FLAT OUT WITH FLEMING IN FLATLAND

HML was lucky enough to secure an audience with 'The Founder' this week. We got an excellent sneak peak behind the scenes at the new and improved Flatland headquarters and were much impressed with the set up... one side has a retro minimal Radio One research desk vibe (with top drawer Federation square/Flinders street station views) while the other is all 'Soviet Constructivist' worker bee action. Genius combo really. We loved that sitting somewhere in the middle between Flatlands' two poles were the remainders of a highly commercial commission for some denim clad entity called 'Lee'. What really blew us away however, was the table full of new covetables, straight from the fingers of the master plyman: hinge jaw mirrored skulls, a forest of lop sided firs and whole new vocabulary of Flatlandisms ripe for the picking.

The Founder tells us that in the next couple of weeks there will be a launch party for the new base camp, including a special 'one off' studio sale. We'll be sure to keep you posted on the time and date, and in the meantime, start saving your pennies people.
