After three and a half years we decided to take on some new challenges, and so we closed Endorfine.

We did some good projects together, it sure was fun, but it's time to move on.

Big thanks to our clients, coworkers and all the smart people that supported us along the way.

20.4.2009
We designed and launched an online magazine about culture, Dwutygodnik ("Biweekly"), for Polish National Audiovisual Institute

Every second issue will include my comic, daily.

7.10.2008
In short:
- after almost a year and a half I got back to daily, my favourite project - it's still Polish only, though.
- Sensi Soft website which we created is nominated on Golden Drum festival - the results will be announced tomorrow, so keep your fingers crossed. We also won the FWA Site of the Day title for Sensi Soft before.
- McDonald's website that I mentioned earlier was awarded with bronze on the KTR (Polish Ad Creators Club) Festival

it's a pretty good year as you can see.

So, what now?
I'll work with Krzysztof Dykas (who also quit Max Weber this month) as a creative team endorfine. We'll create ideas for media and new media.

For the last two and a half years I worked as a new media manager for Double Brand.

It was a great time - I had the opportunity to work with very talented people and I learned a lot, but now it's the time to move on.

This week I'm starting my new job at the most famous Polish interactive agency, Max Weber. Max is the only interactive agency from Poland that won Gold Cyber Lion in Cannes, and it is also considered one of the 90 best agencies in the world by Taschen.

23.9.2005
I avoided linking to commercial projects on karaszewski.com for a long time, but I'll make an exception for this one: Double Brand: people.
I did the Flash programming and motion design, character animations were done in cooperation with Edward Łuska.
