We are currently a Creative Director duo at GUT, Miami.
Alexander Allen, originally from Panama, met Miami-born Andy Tamayo at Crispin Porter + Bogusky in 2015. After eating Chinese takeout and talking about the dumb TV shows they like every day, they realized they were too weird to not become a Copywriter-Art Director team. Ever since they’ve started working together, Andy and Alex have aimed to make the most talked about and written about work. No matter if it’s a Super Bowl ad or a print ad. They’ve amassed over 80 international awards—including 3 Grand Prix, a Titanium, and many Lions at Cannes, and several other honors at the Clios, One Show, and D&AD—for clients like Coca-Cola, Burger King, Heinz, and Budweiser.
If you ever wanna grab some Chinese takeout with us, let us know. You might get to know us better. But until then, judge us by our work.
