I wonder where the word 'news' comes from. I guess it must be new or it wouldn't be relevant and therefore it wouldn't be news so it must be new s.
That just leaves the s. The cynic in me says it stands for shit but it's probably story. Wouldn't it brighten your day, though, if Huw Edwards came on the telly and said "hello, welcome to the new shit" or even better, that really serious intellectual sounding bloke that does the news on radio 4.
Magic. Anyway, here's some new shit about D8/3D8.
D8 News - Sky Bar rebrand and refurbishment
Thu, 01 Feb 2007
3D8 and D8 were appointed to design the new interior and identity for Sky Bar in Edinburgh's Ocean Terminal. Previously Conran’s Zinc Bar and Grill, the brief required a sophisticated informality that would appeal to a wider customer base.
The new Sky brand was inspired by the extensive views over the Forth waters from an elevated position in Leith, seen from the restaurant's huge window space and exterior decking. The graphic treatment was lifted from the interior fabric patterns and colours, which extended to menus and signage.
Proprietor Gordon Fuller said, "D8's ability to apply their creative idea across interior, print and web under one roof is invaluable to us - it makes it a seamless process."
Sky launched in November 2006 and has already received great press reviews in Scotland for the interior, food and atmosphere.
