Who Are These Wonderful People?

Are they from Alice in Wonderland? Is one of them the Mad Hatter in disguise? Guess again! It's the Highway 85 Creative team in uniform at the office!


Highway 85 Creative's team, "Chokehold" founder Guy Zwick,
"Big Fun" creative guru Sean Green and "Always In a Good Mood" Liza Noland.
Highway 85 Creative is Nexus 21's tradeshow exhibit builder. With a philosophy to always be a creative company with culturally relevant ideas, Highway 85 capabilities include graphic design, tradeshow exhibits, large format printing, web design and logistical services.

Highway 85 Creative's drawing board (Leave it to Nicole to notice Starbucks in the picture).

The drawing board for the birth of Highway 85 Creative looked a little different than the one pictured above. Two years ago, on Highway 85 just outside of Ajo, AZ – a breakdown occurred, literally and figuratively. Guy Zwick, the owner and Chief Creative Officer of Highway 85 Creative, found himself with endless hours to sit idly at a service station with a sunburn from the beaches of Mexico and two dogs dramatically panting on their leashes in the 100 degree heat. He decided it was time to go out on his own and do something he’d always dreamed of doing. Thus, Highway 85 Creative was born. And yes, the dogs survived.

Only a few questions remain . . .
1. How many more changes will Nicole and Jeff make to the tradeshow booth?
2. Does Guy's ancient chinese stronghold technique really rejuvenate their endless energy?
3. What do they keep under those hats (besides their huge creative brains)??

The finished tradeshow booth is still kept under wraps for now, but we'll leave you with this comfy red clue. Check back for updates!
