story...
Founded in 1999, isotopelab was initially a collective of Montreal graphic designers, meeting every month to do creativity workshops together. Everybody's busy schedule made it very difficult to get everyone available once a month for the workshop but we decided not to give up and use the web to continue what we started.
Even then, it was still pretty hard to keep up with our activities seeing as how everyone was too busy with their
social lives and work... All that and one of our main members Marie-Chantale Turgeon moving from Montreal
to go to work in Hamburg.

As one of the main members of isotopelab, I always found the project interesting, and i finally decided to invest more time and energy in it. With my own observations and a few comments here and there, isotopelab is still a site about creativity for graphic designers, open to all disciplines. Isotopelab was growing...
today
Through their education, few designers have the chance to fully understand the creative process. Now studied and used for many different outlets, creativity still has fundamental steps that we should not forget to obtain a maximum of results, pleasure and satisfaction.
isotopelab offers online exercices, to make your imagination flourish positively. You can choose exercices depending on the time you can invest, 30, 90 minutes, or a long term project.
For open minded people only, you can also get constructive feedback on your work from exercices' author, exchange different points of view, see things differently and so on...
isotopelab is divided in 3 sections:
• the exercices section is divided in sub sections depending on the time that you can invest. 30 minutes, 1.5 hour, and long term projects.
• in the ressources section, you will find links to different websites,
books, etc.which are related to creativity, color, typography, etc.
• the galery section shows the results of all exercices.
and now, you can also participate!
