I.D.'s Annual Design Review at Material Connexion
THURSDAY, JULY 9TH 2009
AREA MAP
Today was a relaxing day. I met Justin for lunch at the Hudson River Park near his office in Chelsea and we dined on sandwiches, cookies and lemonade whilst watching cute french bulldogs playing in the grass. From there I walked the High Line and spent the afternoon sitting on the stair deck overlooking 17th Street and reading Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex.
In the evening I waited for Justin at Madison Square Park and then we headed across the street to I.D. Magazine's Annual Design Review at Material Connexion. The space was packed, so we took refuge in the rows of fixtures in their material library. It was like a playground for industrial designers that displayed some ridiculous materials. We stayed long enough to eat snacks and hear the giveaway announcements and then we headed home - we are a rather awkward and antisocial bunch.
