The office MOOsaic
November 2011, by Jovanna | 3 Comments – latest by LauraWe have been inspired by the post-it window designs appearing in Shoreditch, where our office is located. So, we wanted to make our very own, with a MOO twist of course.
Having pixels and 8 bit computer games in mind, the design team started pixelating the animals of MOO’s four in-house developer teams (shark, feret, bear and eagle), mainly using MOO brand colours. It became a 7 meter wide MOOsaic made out of 34 MOO StickerBooks (3000 stickers in all) and custom-made magnets to fit. Also, we used a few Round Stickers and Rectangular Labels stuck on magnets for the team names and weekdays. The board is used by the developers for an easy overview of projects …Continue reading this article…

…some more #CityStickers (less than a week to go!)
August 2011, by Charlotte | 2 Comments – latest by HerArtSheLoves‘Start as you mean to carry on’, that’s how the saying goes, right? Well, the last couple #CityStickers round ups have been grouped in definite themes (the great outdoors and, of course,food) and I’m sticking to my guns!
Representing the great outdoors we’ve got Rita making all of us in the UK office jealous with her Portuguese beach shot and Bill representing Connecticut’s natural beauty. Food is covered by HerArtSheLoves showing her handmade robot balancing on a Florida orange. We’ve also got a new theme emerging in the form of travelling, with bearandrobot showing us how often they’ve left the UK archipelago (um, jealous?). Heather takes it a stage further and goes all multinational on us by …Continue reading this article…

We’re absolutely loving what we’re seeing, hence we’ve decided it’s time again to round up and show off a selection. Last time it seemed food was very much on the mind of you intrepid City Stickers.

Toilet Art in MOO HQ
July 2011, by Paul L | 12 Comments – latest by justmeMOO HQ is a great place to work, full of lovely people and as creative as creative can be. In fact, just the other day I came across something that surprised and delighted me to the extent that I was taking more regular trips down to the office toilet!
Before I start to bring down the tone of the MOO Blog though, let me explain (and admit) something I “might” have started that turned out to be a great little story.
The story starts in a MOO toilet cubical where someone had left some Blue-Tac on the wall that I thought I’d make use of in a more creative way than just a blob on the wall and hey presto, this is what I …Continue reading this article…

City Stickers Competition
July 2011, by Charlotte | 13 Comments – latest by katie
You may have noticed that we’ve launched some new products recently (not that we’ve been talking about it much or anything!) Because it’s been a while since we’ve launched something new, we wracked our brains for a way to make our stickers that bit more special. In the end we decided to try make every order more personal to you. Which is why every order of Round Stickers now includes a free sticker relating to the country your order is shipped to.*
We want to celebrate the lovely new designs, the clever technology that allows us to do this and just stickers in general really! So, we’ve got a competition and some …Continue reading this article…
