This Wednesday, September 1st weâd like to invite you to a very cool event here in Seattle. As some of you know, team BUILD is the guest editor on the fall issue of Arcade Magazine, the Northwestâs very own journal dedicated to design and the built-environment. The fall issue is packed with talent, masterfully designed by the sharp-shooters at RMB Vivid and beautifully orchestrated by the hard working staff at Arcade.
Weâve always had a fascination with the notion of when a design should be considered complete. In the process of design, there are an infinite number of stopping points â each of which has advantages and disadvantages. Arcadeâs Fall Issue gave us an incredible opportunity to create a framework around this theme and bring together BUILDâs network of contributors. âFrom Gritty to Glossyâ studies the various methods of design and explores the design philosophy of 9 prominent, design-minded groups.
Wednesdayâs event will officially launch the fall issue in style and here’s 5 reasons why you should attend:
1. Itâs a great chance to blend with what we like to call Seattleâs design tribe â a circle of like-minded designers, thinkers and doers.
2. Youâll be able to meet a few of the rock-star contributors.
3. Free copies of Arcade 29.1 will be available for you.
4. The event will be held at the uber-cool Chase Jarvis Photography studio.
5. And lastly, youâll get to hear a bit from team BUILD -we promise not to blabber on too much about architecture. The no-host bar will also allow you to tip a few back with us.
Basically, weâre super excited about the event and weâd love to share some good atmosphere and conversation with you. Here are the deets:
