Highlands by Design - Bowral Southern Highlands Design Company
Description
Everything you ever wanted to know about us.
You probably don't really want to know that much about us, but we'll share a few bits and pieces of information that might make things a little easier. Highlands by Design is a new media company based in Bowral, NSW. Bowral was once the home town of Sir Donald Bradman, Jimmy Barnes, and one of the girls from Chicks on Speed and probably has more boutique stores, cafes and antique stores per square hundred metres than anywhere else in the western world (at least it feels that way sometimes). We love our cricket here, and we also love drinking coffee and shopping for Italian leather shoes.
Heidi started her professional career in the print game, laying out and typesetting the designs for companies such as Pink Panther and Apple. After getting bored setting up the bromide machine, she one day picked up a spanner and decided to become a car mechanic (she was the Southern Highlands' very own Sharlene Robinson). Sure fixing cars can be lots of fun, but a few years later she picked up a mouse and decided the web game was where she really belonged. Cut to five years later, and after building countless sites for various companies, she finally decided she wanted to tell the man to 'step the hell off!' and teamed up with a couple of close drinking buddies to start Highlands by Design. Although the other two know nothing about cars, they sure know plenty about Bradman and beer.
John wanted to be a robot when he was in his early teens. 'But they look so cool!' he would say pushing his vinyl copy of Kraftwerk's The Man Machine straight into your face. Alas, Kraftwerk weren't actually robots, and the day he found out was the day everything went downhill. He later decided that if he still wanted to be a robot, he needed to work with computers, and he always felt design was where it's at. After spending almost half a decade running a web business on his own (working for clients such as Coca Cola, Yahoo, Westpac, Fairfax, etc), he felt he needed leave his old world and move to a new more advanced world where there were other robots to work and play with. That's how he ended up in the Highlands (after watching the movie Highlander), and once there he befriended two robots who also wanted to change the world.
