Chris Flack Email & Phone Number

My career has taken me from one side of the world to the other and back again. Over the years, I've helped create a new time zone to put Te Anau on the map and exploded over 1000 ping pong balls to launch TEDx in New Zealand. I've rebranded Christmas for one of New Zealand’s top magazines, and may well be the first person ever to get the design community to embrace Comic Sans (much to the dismay of all involved) to help fight cancer. My recent passion project 'Mate Act Now' used a “digital protest” to create awareness of the ongoing need for climate action.At the heart of all my work is an honest simplicity and a love for the craft. I believe in developing relationships based on trust so that new ideas can come to life.I meet my now wife while climbing Mt Kilimanjaro to raise money for the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal and, in 2006, spent a year of my life facing down my fears — by doing two things a week that took me out of my comfort zone. I've run the London Marathon and appeared on ITV's Dinner date (to prove that Kiwi males can cook).My ideas have been featured in everything from Mashable to Creative Review and my designs have graced the walls of the Mexican Museum of Design. I've received awards from D&AD, TDC (Tokyo), Clios, Effies, Adstars, Communications Arts, AGDA, and Best Design Awards. I regularly write, judge, and talk (too much) about design.
