As we move closer to DesignPhiladelphia 2010, important announcements about upcoming events, opportunities for involvement, and general information will be shared via our mailing list. During October 7-17, each day will start with a mailing of the most up-to-date event information for that day, including maps and additional details. Join the DesignPhiladelphia mailing list now to stay in touch!

Design takes time. Time to imagine, time to create, time to experience, time to digest. We can’t slow down time, but we can spread it out. So instead of a week, DesignPhiladelphia 2010 will last a full 11 days, October 7 to 17. This gives you more time to be enlightened and fascinated, thrilled and excited by the breadth and depth of the creative company you keep in the Greater Philadelphia region.

Electronic Ink partners with DesignPhiladelphia 2010 to create a fresh web presence for our cultural initiative. An international consultancy, Electronic Ink is dedicated to improving the way people interact with technology, environments and one another. In 1990, Harold Hambrose built the company to provide insightful design solutions that solve problems by doing something radical: considering human behaviors first and foremost. It was the practice of user-centered design, before it even had a name. We, at DesignPhiladelphia, share Electronic Ink’s goal. People must be front and center to the questions we ask and the problems we’re solving in order to effect any real change.
