Once upon a time there was a man named Lars.  Lars grew up in Bloomington, Minnesota.  Bloomington is a place located along Highway 494, down the street from the largest mall in America.  A place where a Prince had lived.  One morning, Lars didn’t want to get out of bed.  He had a fabulous adventure during the night; shaving, eating breakfast, hiking, biking, climbing, fishing, putting his feet up, and running with animals.  Lars then opened his eyes and started his day;  shaving, eating breakfast, hiking, biking, climbing, fishing, putting his feet up, and running with animals.  Lars had a fabulous adventure during the day.  Lars couldn’t wait to get  back into bed (at the Bloomington Renaissance)and do it all again the next day.  Sometimes design influences who we are.  Other times design is influenced by who we are.
