Jacob Tyler Studio Tour


Thanks for the photo Koa!

Here is the shot I took in the previous photo. 


Jacob Tyler is location in Downtown San Diego on a high level of a historic building. The elevators are gold with intricate details depicting a forest and various flourishes. The security guard didn't allow us to take photos of the elevators and said that people may try to copy the design of these 80(ish) year old doors. Not sure about that. The entry level of Jacob Tyler was extremely impressive, their was a nice meeting room and office areas where the creative directors work. The actual designers (and only ones at work) were all in a seemingly smaller room that was on the cluttery side. It didn't seem to match the grand statement of the entrance or meeting area, but that is the nature of designing. Everything was very red with a hint of retro prints and artwork around the place. Our host Charlie was very nice and explained to us how he started his company and the hiring process of his employees.
