January – Winter 2023
*Accidentally types 2022 still*
We interrupt your skillful super-action-movie-spy-level attempts at dodging “See you next year!” jokes to bring you *checks notes 📝* OOP–– New Year content. 😔 That being said, our Welcome to the New Year Newsletter isn’t going to be a bunch of overused jokes that are sooooooo last year… That’s mostly because it’s scheduled to go out like several weeks into January 👀. Instead, we’re here to talk goals, resolutions, and ways we hope to grow and improve. As if 10 years of being stunningly talented wasn’t enough, here are some of Box 8’s 2023 goals:
We (not Justin) will all be better at updating our Monday boards.
We will use the ShreKayla emoji on Slack more. It deserves better.
“I'd like to drink more [wine] in 2023, but I'm going to start that resolution early by starting today.” – Stef, Dec. 23rd. 9:40AM.
We will not treat Zeb’s peanut butter as Office Peanut Butter.
Jeremy will not overwater Justin’s desk plant.
We will not leave dishes in the sink.
Zeb will stop gaslighting Chuck about gaslighting everyone over said dirty dishes in the sink.
Karl will break his elbow licking record.
Justin wants to learn how to sew clothes (which Karl will inevitably lick on the elbow).
We will finally redecorate the office.
Emma will start going to the gym before work instead of after in order to become post-breakup even hotter while simultaneously avoiding her ex.
Stef’s goal is to put her wellness over convenience.
We will get new conference table chairs. Bye-bye, stools.
Chuck will be the only responsible adult and save for a down payment on a house, meanwhile:
Kayla is quoted as saying “My goal is to finish Grey’s [Anatomy] by the end of the year… will probably be month… bc I have problems.”
We will not respond to haters on our Casa Me TikTok.

We’d love to hear from you!

Maybe you loved us (duh) and wanted to let us know how awesome we were, or maybe there were some things you thought we fell short on (like mounting the TV). Whatever it may be, we want to know! We’re always looking to better ourselves each year.
Current Projects
Just Started: The Crispy Chick
Soon to be the only chicken spot at the Deer Park shopping center in Deer Park, NY. Our goal is to develop a modern, yet playful visual identity that excites through simplicity and personality. The visual language should convey a sense of trusted, quality food with an approachable, family-friendly atmosphere.
Just Finished: TUDO
Ever heard of a Xis Sandwich? This overstuffed and cheese-covered Brazilian street food is coming to a Winfield Street Coffee location near you––specifically if you live in Westport or Stamford, CT; Rye, NY; or Naples, FL. Add TUDO to your To-Do. Eat like you mean it!
Just Launched: Alici
Alici is officially open, Atlanta! And word on the street is it’s Atlanta’s BEST Oyster Bar… Specializing in oysters, seafood, and housemade pastas inspired by the Amalfi coast, Alici is down to shuck.
Until next time.
Someone wise once said something wise about growth that we could probably quote here. We won’t be, but we do believe it. Here’s to a year of learning and progress (as well as Slacking and snacking). Let us know your new year resolutions on instagram @box8creative in the comments––unless you’re a hater from TikTok. We’d love to know how many elbows you want to lick this year.
Welcome to 2023! See you out there.
–Your friends at Box 8.
