Redesigning Christmas
Studio 360 redesigns Christmas. Why limit the holiday to Victorian sleigh rides and inflatable lawn Santas? We commissioned one of the country’s most creative design firms to imagine a contemporary, 21st-century Christmas. Indie rock legend Robyn Hitchcock improvises a gory Christmas tune, and Kurt Andersen talks with country diva Dolly Parton, who was just honored for lifetime achievement at the Kennedy Center. And the guy who wrote the New Wave holiday classic “Christmas Wrapping” tells us how the song changed his life (hint: it has a happy ending).
