Gecko Designs’ Staff Current Favorite Songs

February 1, 2022 Adam Office Culture

William Cowper once said, “variety is the very spice of life, that gives it all its flavor” and the staff at Gecko Designs is about as spicy as it comes.

When I first started working for Gecko Designs, I immediately felt at home and was welcomed into the family with open arms. Over the course of my first year with the company, I have found countless areas that we all have in common – an important piece to the puzzle when it comes to a healthy work culture. What I didn’t realize, at first, was how wildly diverse we are as a team, as well!

With 11 people on staff, coming from all walks of life, we thought it would be fun to try a little social experiment. I asked each of them to tell me what their current favorite song is, so that I could compile a music playlist to reflect our tastes. I was shocked to see how eclectic the list was!

Even the responses to my request varied. Take a moment to think about it. If I asked you to give me a song, just one, that was your current favorite – forget about your all-time favorite song, that question seemed to derail the experiment as there are way too many to choose from – would you be able to quickly come up with a song? Some of our staff were able to give me an answer right away, while others tried to negotiate; “Does it have to be just one song?”…”Can I give you a song from a few different genres?”…”Can I get back to you? This is going to take some heavy soul searching.”

It turns out that our motley crew (pun intended) of designers, developers, and project managers have something in common – but it certainly isn’t our tastes in music! It’s our passion for that which makes us smile inside and out. Though not all of us enjoyed every song that was submitted by our fellow staffers, we all laughed and appreciated the insight that the experiment provided into what we’re all bopping away to in our AirPods. We’ll see what happens when I open Pandora’s Box and ask what their favorite foods are!

So, here is the list of the current favorite songs from Gecko Designs staff!

Now, I present the question to you! If you had to choose one song that is your current favorite, what would it be?

The decision to invest in a new, professionally-constructed website was not a casual one for my small company. The Gecko team was supportive and enthusiastic from our first interaction and throughout the duration of the project. They demonstrated the value of working with talented, committed designers to create a functional, beautiful new online home for our work. I am grateful, and recommend Gecko without reservation.

Gecko recently launched a new website for my organization (Headwaters Foundation) and they knocked it out of the park! They were receptive to our wants and needs and very responsive throughout the process. We enjoyed working with their team; they really have begun to feel like my 'communications coworkers down the hall.' I am looking forward to working with them on more projects.

Gecko was selected through a competitive process to assist Missoula Public Health in our modernization and brand redesign campaign. Their staff have been immensely helpful. They've helped guide our process toward results that are stellar. We presented our updated branding to our board and they loved it--comments were "two thumbs way up", "this is exactly what we needed", and "love it!" We will definitely look forward to working with them in the future.

Gecko Designs quickly identified and efficiently fixed a problem we were having with our website AND pointed out some other items that needed attention. Very professional and congenial. I highly recommend them.

We worked with Gecko Designs to completely revamp our website for Northern Rockies Orthopaedics. It took us over 2 years to get everything how we wanted it and all ideas for our physicians incorporated. Grace and the team at Gecko were so accommodating and patient with us. Highly recommend using them for all web design needs!
