When you first see a design or graphic, what is your first reaction to it? Do you admire all of it or just one aspect? Do you see an idea you want to steal for a future project? Do you wonder why the designer made one decision over another?

Occasionally you might be able to ask the designer these questions. You can reach out on social media or maybe you know the designer personally already. But most of the time, we don’t have the opportunity to have deep conversations with the designer, to understand their process and decisions.

For the September Creative Conference Call, now YOU can be privy to those inner thoughts and designer decisions.

Our September event will be an interactive session for attendees and speakers that actually begins BEFORE the Creative Conference Call. 

Enter The Design Museum.

 

How It Works

In September, we selected four pieces of work from those submitted be designers. Now it is your turn to critique the work displayed. 

For the next three weeks prior to the call, you can enter the Mural board and check out the work. Leave comments anonymously on sticky notes of things you like, questions you have about a design choice, color selection, anything you want. Don’t want to be anonymous? You can sign your name on your sticky note and we’ll bring you into the discussion during the live call.

Pssst. if you are the designer… you can’t reply to the comments or questions left. Yet. 

On Sept. 29 the Creative Conference Call will be a speed critique. We will look at each piece of work in the Design Museum individually. For each piece we will facilitate a 5-minute conversation to discuss the comments, questions and thoughts left on the Mural board. Anyone on the call is welcome to join the conversation. After 5 minutes, we will speak directly with the designer to hear their thoughts, what went into the design and how the design came to be. 

Then we’ll move on to the next piece and repeat.
