National Design Week

RISD just sent me their e-newletter thing, which had this listed. The Cooper-Hewitt doesn't have a link yet for the podcast that I could find, but it sounds like it will be really interesting!

As part of National Design Week (October 19-25), Scott Stowell '90 GD will join other 2008 National Design Award winners in discussing the state of contemporary design. He and his NY studio Open won in the Communications Design category, while Deborah Berke BArch '77 was a finalist in the Interior Design category. The panel discussion takes place on Tuesday, October 21 at 6:30pm at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum in NYC and will be podcast live.

Gocco! and Gocco Supplies


Art Things, art supply store in Annapolis sells Gocco Supplies. Art Things 2 Annapolis Street, Annapolis (410) 268-3520.

Pearl Paint in NYC also sells Gocco suplies.

If any one finds either of these places selling a blue film- necessary for
exposing your screens, please buy 2 or 3 and I will pay you back. These get lost and are essential to exposing your screens.

Check it Out
There was a Save Gocco web link which I can't seem to find easily this morming. Click here for one link to a blog. Also Google Save Gocco and you will find a NY Times article last year/two. Also check out Etsy for lots of products that use gocco. Flickr Site for Save Gocco

A great place to stay in NYC!


I totally recommend the Chelsea Star Hotel located outside of Chelsea and close to Madison Square Garden.
This hotel/hostel is super funky and around $30 a night for dorm style beds. They also offer hotel rooms and apartments for nightly rates.
