DESIGN PUBLIC
In addition to getting your help with identifying good examples of design within the various categories that we are posting here on the blog we are also looking for your help on how to best explain design. There will be a section of the exhibit that will try to explain design to the public. How do you define design? How do you explain the design process to someone who doesn't know about design? Please share your thoughts with us. Thank you.
