Hello Monday is a digital creative agency that presented confessions and lessons they've learned over the years. Some of their confessions included creative processes not always being fun, bad projects killing passion, and finding good employees being difficult. Their lessons focused on building a creative playground environment, choosing projects for the right reasons, having a company philosophy, and knowing when it's time to leave a project/client. They provided examples of their creative work for clients such as LEGO and MoMA.
