Design in Roe Dylan

‎Posted April 08, 2011 in Company News, Sightings. Tagged with .

Lucky us! Our wee state is hosting 400 design professionals and students this weekend for the IDSA Northeast Conference. While most of the conference is for the pros, you can still mingle with some of the best and brightest during the Rhode Island Design Walkabout — three overlapping and enlightening public events — all free, all downtown, all tonight! We recommend the Design in Rhode Island exhibit at the AIA Gallery (158 Washington Street), showcasing the surprising breadth [and best] of products designed right here in our little state. We were sent a preview of the gallery this morning, and lo! What do we spy in yonder blurry low res camera-phone photos?! Tis Food Face! And Pick Your Nose! Woot, as the kids say.

 

Who's behind that Pick Your Nose cup? (It's Dee's daughter Tess!)

 

Keen Shoes, for those without polarized lenses.

Famous resident Mr. P-Head and STOOLS! A chair's for fools, everybody wants stools...

Many other Rhode Island companies are featured, from one of the hottest electronics companies to the folks who build the Academy Awards sets. Go see for yourself! Now don't say you haven't learned something new today.
