apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


December NY Design Meetup: Tonight!

9-26-meetup.jpg• What: NY Design Meetup
• Members: 416
• When: 7-8pm, Thursday, December 6th
• Where: DWR SoHo, 142 Wooster St. (Prince/Houston)

Trying a new twist this month for the holidays. This week we're back at DWR SoHo for our seventh New York Design Meetup. Each gathering has been awesome and this time we're not only inviting designers to showcase their work, but we're also inviting two people who need interior design help to go before the crowd (with pics) and get a ton of free advice. Interested? Read on.....

 
 

Sign in, put it in your calendar and come on down...

• Presenters: email justine @ apartmenttherapy.com with MEETUP in subject line if you'd like to show this Thursday. We have space for 6.

IF YOU'D LIKE DESIGN HELP, also email Justine with one picture of the ONE room in question. We'll take a look and choose two for this month. Then we'll ask you to send us 10 pics which we'll have ready on our computer for you to share and get advice on.

"On the 1st Thursday each month at 7PM, 6 people get 5 minutes each to demo something cool to New York's product and furniture design community" We have open space, so email us today and get on the schedule (all info here and below).

We've always felt that the web's greatest asset was in creating community and that it should mirrored offline as well. Inspired by Scott Heiferman's NY Tech Meetup, which we've been going to lately, we've started a NY Design Meetup for product and furniture designers, architects, entrepreneurs, students and hackers.

Our goal is to provide a unique, efficient and entertaining forum for designers to get their ideas out to an interested crowd who can offer networking possibilities, exposure and good old applause.

Where else can people cheer you on for your design?

In addition, we'll be blogging each of our 6 presenters each month, providing them with additional exposure on AT. If you're interested in coming or showing, come to this link, and sign in. Admission is free.

I don't exactly understand the trend of giving interior design away for free...

Oh - I see. You were referring to the new DESIGN HELP section mentioned above.

I think this is a great idea. My design friends and I have been trying to get some excitement going in Detroit about design. This is the perfect thing. Mind if we steal your idea?
