Every holiday season, we at Thackway McCord create a series of chocolate bars as gifts for friends and clients. This year, after almost two years of the pandemic we all just needed a little fun. Soulless QR codes have become ubiquitous during covid, so we set to work at making QR codes into something else, something that would make you smile. What started as abstract QR code patterns became, through serendipitous experiments, something fun and cute, namely our mascots Bean, Rosie and Fox. We set up the page thackwaymccord dot fun with stickers and totes of Rosie and friends and created 8-bit style gifs, Bean is already of some renown as an Instagram Giphy sticker.
