Like reallyyyy on top of their mock game. These Virginia Tech design students are on top of their mock game.ħ. Starting with Data Design by Per Mollerup.Ħ. I’ve also gotta check out all of the books from Lucas Czarnecki’ design library. I’ve gotta check out TypeCon this year.ĥ. Maybe it’s the high-back, leather tufted conference chairs? Maybe it’s the gauntlet style seating arrangement? Maybe it’s the observer tickets? Never actually seen The Apprentice so can’t confirm.Ĥ. This portfolio review reminds me of The Apprentice. Also neat (and news to me) that there will be another CDW-hosted portfolio review this spring, in the speed dating format I attended as a student.ģ. It’s pretty neat that Tuesday Design Society meets every Tuesday, and focuses one meet-up per month on critique.Ģ. Portfolio reviewers, Jim Efstathiou, myself, Meaghan Dee, and Lucas Czarnecki.

Full disclosure: I wasn’t able to attend all of the equally fabulous events on the week’s program, but this is what I gleaned from those I could: Now, in an effort to fill your hearts with all of the FOMO, I’ve compiled a list of 50 Thoughts I Had at Charlottesville Design Week 2019. Is it unreasonable to suggest 100% attendance by local studios in 2020? A Richmond caravan? Participation by every BFA program in the state? I’m an idealist, so I think not. I’m on a mission to get more people to this compelling, community-driven, strikingly affordable ($50 for an all-day forum, $20/workshop, and all other events free?!) week of events. On the heels of this inspiration, I’m on a mission to get the word out. Charlottesville topography, Charlottesville Design Week branding, and speaker headshots. Whatever it was, I am so on board for this a) event b) direction it’s headed and c) excuse to grow to my fabric tote bag collection.įun buttons, ft. Maybe it was the new website, maybe it was the buttons, but probably it was the immense amount of planning and thoughtfulness by event organizers (a group of crazy friendly Tuesday Design Society volunteers led by Lucas Czarnecki) and generous local sponsorship. Was it just me, or did it feel like this event got its big boy britches this year? Last week was Charlottesville’s 3rd annual Charlottesville Design Week.
