🐾 May is National Pet Month, so we’re introducing the unofficial office mascots—dogs, cats, and one very seasoned bird!

From keeping us company in the office to greeting us at the door after long days, we’re lucky to have them by our side through it all.

A very good reason for a team lunch ⭐️

Yesterday, we stepped away from our desks to celebrate Krista and Julia’s one-year anniversary with starrdesign. A great excuse to gather, laugh, and appreciate two people who make our team better every day!

📱 In Episode 10 of Restaurants Redefined, we’re closing out the series with a conversation on where technology fits in the future of full-service restaurants, featuring special guest Larry Reinstein.

Some things are sticking—smarter reservations, kitchen automation, seamless payments. Others? Not so much.

Because at the end of the day, technology should support the experience—not replace it.⭐️

🪑 In Episode 9 of Restaurants Redefined, we’re asking a simple question: why do some tables feel better than others?

The answer is dining psychology. Guests naturally look for a sense of “anchoring,” which is why booths, banquettes, grouped tables, and even high tops near busy aisles can make a seat feel more comfortable.

Sometimes the difference between a good table and a great one is just smart design. 👏

Congratulations to Ideal Company, Inc., on being named Vendor of the Year at Firebirds Wood Fired Grill’s 2026 Internal Leadership Conference in Napa, CA. 👏

This recognition is well deserved and confirms what we already know: they’ve stepped up in a major way to help us facilitate Firebirds’ growth and development.

But the best part? After accepting the award, they turned to our team and said, “This is for all of us.”

Here’s to shared wins, strong teams, and building what’s next together 🛠️

A legendary “Steve” moment 🔥

At Firebirds Wood Fired Grill’s 2026 Leadership Conference, a long-running inside joke took center stage — honoring all the “Steves” who have made an impact on the brand.

And one of them? Our very own Steve Starr — the only non-Firebirds team member recognized alongside their executive leadership.

For over 20 years, this partnership has been about more than design — it’s about being truly embedded in our clients’ story. This moment made that clearer than ever.

While Steve couldn’t attend, our team made sure his jersey made it home 🏈

Here’s to partnerships that go beyond projects. 🔥
