SIMPATICO

Shift volume 3

Shift magazine is an exploration of inspiration from J+J Flooring Group. Designed to change perspectives and spark new ideas, Shift is about color and creativity, bold decisions and beautiful statements.

This issue takes on Simpatico: the quiet moment when the unknown becomes the trusted familiar. Here, harmony springs from unexpected pairings of pattern, texture, tone and color, movement and emotion, like the unspoken, yet shared experience, of a stranger turned friend.

Widgets & Stone designers Liz Tapp, Stephanie Fast and Mark Slawson worked closely with J+J designer Brian Daniels to create this issue.

Creative Direction: Paul Rustand; Design + Art Direction: Liz Tapp; Design: Mark Slawson and Stephanie Fast; Writing: Jacob Biba; Photography: Geoff Knight, Dotson Commercial, ThinkChromatic.

TasteBuds Local Food Guide

From 2014 to 2017 the Widgets & Stone team designed the local food guide — a publication highlighting the Chattanooga region’s best farmers, restaurants, artisans and suppliers. Working with the wonderful team of content creators from Crabtree Farms, another practical guide has been produced to benefit the Scenic City’s food culture.

To good eating!
