 Creative Space
Ask Dan Wieden, founder and CEO of Wieden+Kennedy, what he was thinking when he set out to create a new headquarters after his 18-year-old, $780 million ad agency outgrew its comfortable old space in downtown Portland, Oregon, and he'll tell you without hesitation.
But Wieden's boldest move was to bring creativity into his firm's headquarters -- and he did it with one stroke: He invited into the building the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art (PICA), an edgy, 5-year-old, contemporary-art organization whose mission is to establish a beachhead for overlooked, underhyped contemporary artists.
Wieden and a few of his deputies work in beautiful offices on the top floor, in what the rank and file affectionately refer to as "the penthouse." But for the most part, the setup of the employees' workspaces depends not on what their titles are, but on what they actually do.

 Wired News: Wieden & Kennedy Studio Artist Dream Job
The Wieden & Kennedy advertising agency was founded on its work for Nike in the early '80s, back when Nike was an unorthodox little Oregon shoe company with an account of less than US$1 million.
Wieden & Kennedy's "Just Do It" campaign not only launched the Nike myth and a whole new era of selling, it also branded the agency itself as the slickest, hippest, smartest ad shop in the world, with creatives whose work would define the oft-scary edge of late-20th century capitalism.
But if you're ready to let go and submerge yourself in the power of merchandising, you might be interested to know that the company is hiring freelance studio artists.

By giving Wieden sweeping duties on Old Spice even before its work on its other P&G assignments has hit market, P&G is throwing its traditional caution on agency matters to the wind.
Those reasons, too, account for having Wieden handle communications planning and media buying in North America, the P&G spokeswoman said, characterizing it as a test.

Independent Wieden & Kennedy has launched a school, called 12, for aspiring advertising professionals.
While any good school should cost good money, and this one does at $13,000 a year, it seems strange that an ad agency would make someone pay to work on their clients.
While clients worked on by 12 students will be charged a reduced rate, Wieden will still pull in that fee as well as the $13,000 per year for each student in the program.
