It’s time for a glow up.

As we’ve grown over the last 8 years, we’ve seen a whole boatload of change in the industry. In how the economics of our clients verticals function, in what constitutes good (and human made) work, views on hot dogs, etc. Most importantly, we’ve seen some changes in ourselves.

When I ( ) started Fried in 2018, to be completely honest, I just wanted to have a slick little design studio. A maker space. I’d done everything from heavy duty brand strategy work, advertising and marketing, and running events to gig-poster design, but just making cool stuff at the end of the day is what made me happy. It still does, but now in a different way.

But, making cool stuff just isn’t enough anymore. Lot’s of questions floated around the idea of “Purpose”. I need more. The studio needs more. Our clients need more. We’ve always been the ones to help - but we just never really positioned ourselves that way.

So, in the coming weeks, you’ll start to see a big change in FDC-Land. New lanes driven, new ideas brought to the table, a new brand, and a new position. Internally, we’ve called it FDC 6.0. More on all that later.

Until then, here’s a nice reel our pals at helped us put together to highlight some of our favorite projects from the last little bit.

Big time bringing home a gold addy for our Missouri Cryptid deck series with . We’ve been sponsoring Skate Camps for kiddos at the park for a while now and these decks really seal the deal. Swipe thru for some process and details.

In June, FDC will be 8 Years old. I’ve been in this game a long time. A lot of projects. A lot of growth. A lot of late nights. A whoooooole lot of those. FDC has grown into something I’ve always wanted, although not sure I ever expected. It’s been the most fun and most stressful part of my entire career, and I couldn’t be prouder of this thing. But times change. I’ve changed. Hell, we’re still the same people putting pen to paper every day - I guess we’ve all changed. It’s time for FDC to change too. ��Moving into ’26, our little slice of Vice heaven is going to get a glow up. A big one. Some things we’ll keep, some things we’ll lose. Sometimes you have to burn it all down to get some new growth.

Anyway, we’re going to put all the s**t on our site for 40% off, no code needed. We won’t be making ANY of it again. Like, none of it. So if you see something you dig, might be the time to get it. Appreciate y’all sticking around all these years for all of the absurdity we’ve been able to pull off for this long. Cheers. - Josh
