In the studio across the way from us, Sherpas Cinema have been holed up all summer, editing the feature film All.I.Can in time for its world premiere in Whistler on September 23 at the 2000–seat Conference Centre.

Passionate about mountain culture? Prove it.
Do not be surprised at a job interview for Origin Design if we ask you to take off your coat. We just want to see if you really mean it when you say you love the mountains. (Half as much as our Montreal office’s Account Manager does.)
Lunch? Just a banana, thanks.
Revisiting yesterday’s theme of making peace with our inner ape, we thought we’d share a few photos of the Origin Whistler team swinging through the trees at Monkido last week. (More pics are posted on our flickr account.)

I mean, really, is there no other way to convey the boldness of the roast than with a bomb? [...]
