RG Talk: Top 25 Cozy Places in Nashville
With the brisk winter weather upon us, we went in search of the coziest places in Nashville to read a book or enjoy good company while escaping the cold. On our hunt, we discovered that the term “cozy” means more than just dim lighting and velvet couches – though we love that too! Here’s a list of all the cozy places you will find us this season.
RG Talk: The Most Cozy Places in Nashville
In part one of our “Big Four for Creatives” series, we explored the impact of your “room” on your creativity. This week we’re taking it one step further by sharing our go-to spots in Nashville that are sure to fuel your creativity. From rooftop bars and restaurants to local shops and the great outdoors, these spaces will make creative block a thing of the past.
Part Two: The Power of your Mind
As much as I love embracing the Power of your “Room”, I really do believe that your mind is the most powerful tool you can give (and take away from) your creativity. Our minds are stretched and transformed every single day- by the words we hear and the people we see, by the things we do and the ways we spend our time. In Part One of this blog, I talked about using your senses to ignite your creativity, but what if managing your thoughts can have the same effect?
RG’s Fresh Finds
We look forward to the weekend like everyone else, but Spotify’s New Music Friday playlist makes it just that much sweeter. And while they always have the best and newest tunes, we wanted to offer our own fresh FINDS that you might not have heard of otherwise.
Here’s a little treat to make your Friday that much more enjoyable.
RG Talk: Nashville’s Top 20 Creative Rooms
In part one of our “Big Four for Creatives” series, we explored the impact of your “room” on your creativity. This week we’re taking it one step further by sharing our go-to spots in Nashville that are sure to fuel your creativity. From rooftop bars and restaurants to local shops and the great outdoors, these spaces will make creative block a thing of the past.
Part One: The Power of your Room
Creativity is a hot topic here at Red Griffin.

In this four-part series, we’ll show you how to bring your creative flow to life because the struggle is real and the creative slump can be even realer.
Sharing the Experience: An Inside look at the New Restoration Hardware
Get an inside look at the new Restoration Hardware in Nashville and find out why more and more businesses are focusing on the tangible experience. For everyone who thinks the age of brick and mortars is over, think again. Not only are they here to stay, but they’re becoming much more extravagant, interactive and of course, “insta-worthy”.
How to Keep the Creative Flow
Stuck in a rut? Creatively blocked? Out of coffee!? As part of a creative branding agency, the constant pressure to be innovative, unique, and impactful with our content can be draining. It’s tough to avoid the competition, and it’s even tougher to come up with a truly one-of-a-kind idea.
Hidden Gems for the Foodie
There’s something about this town and its obsession with growing the “foodie” population that has sprung up in recent years. It’s pretty tough to keep track of all of the new restaurant openings and the best bars/coffee shops/food festivals/happy hours/etc.
Movie Set Aesthetics We’re Enamored With
When we think of storytelling we think of the obvious: words. Words that are shared to recall an event with a friend, words that are written into a journal for one’s future self, words that are typed in courier, size 12, single spaced on the script of a film. The power of storytelling is found in its ability to evoke emotion and move an audience. Film is known best for this power of storytelling.
Brand Communication in Conflict
When a brand faces adversity in the public eye, there are a few key ways to act.
Instead of reacting in the heat of the moment and digging the hole deeper, it’s imperative to be intentional, thoughtful and maintain integrity in your response.
Band-aids don’t work on brands.
Communicate with your audience or you’ll lose their trust.
Prepared action > Reaction
Holiday Branding
Holiday Branding takes form in festive events, opportunistic partnerships, creative campaigns, and more.
Strategy and curation band together to reach people in a real and relevant way. It appeals to the current moment of celebration.
It’s fun.
It’s festive.
It’s a win-win.
Part Three: The Power of your Craft
Our “craft”, our ideas and creations carry weight, not only because it’s our own unique interpretation of it, but because no two people in the world are exactly alike. It’s time to put away the comparison, the perfectionism and self-doubt and feel confident in our craft just because it’s our version of it.
