This past week, Firehouse was privileged to sponsor IgniteDallas3, a high-energy evening on which 18 speakers used no more than 5 minutes and 20 slides to share something inspiring, thought-provoking or just plain fun. The topics ranged from collecting local art (heyshari.com), to everything you wanted to know about redheads (@valerielm), to why you should [...]

For Valentine’s Day, I treated my wife to an evening of Dining in the Dark. Yes, it is exactly what it sounds like. And I am guessing some of you may be debating whether that was, in fact, a treat. The occasion was staged in the basement level of the Aloft Hotel downtown, a venue [...]

Thought I’d share some new television work we created for a local cosmetic surgery client. This 0:15 spot was created by @gregorylayne and @silvercuellar3 to highlight ASA’s new painless hair transplanting technology. Special thanks to our friends over at Red Car editorial for all the help. Take a look.

Interstate Batteries took the wraps off their newly redesigned NASCAR last week during a press conference at Joe Gibbs Racing. Unlike most car designs, whose design parameters seem to be about how many decals you can stick all over it, this new Interstate car takes a more conceptual approach.

It gives us reasons to celebrate living and brings us unlimited fulfillment. Music, art, literature, pop culture. It’s in the very [...]

So, we just had a party here at the agency to celebrate our being named as Agency of The Year (southwest region) at Advertising Age’s Small Agency Conference. It was a great time. Great for all of the people here at the agency. A chance to stop for a moment and take a breath. Say [...]

Last Thursday, something bigger than words can describe started here at Firehouse. It’s an initiative born out of Mark’s belief that big ideas can make a difference, and that the power of prayer is, well, powerful – and can be life changing. Anna Basso is a 16-year-old girl who lives in Dallas and whose family [...]

CNN posed the question the other day, “Is Fast Food Fare Going Too Far?” Interesting query.  Let’s examine the evidence. Exhibit A from the article: The defense rests, your Honor. Oh, one more thing, did I mention that it has 1,380 grams of salt–an entire day’s allowance in one whopping, deep-fried dose. The court finds the [...]
