On Thursday night, February 25, we spoke at the Walker Art Center as part of their "Drawn Here (and There)" lecture series. The lecture was well-attended by students, colleagues, and interested folks from the Twin Cities community. The Walker has already posted the lecture here, so if you missed it, don't fret...you can check still check it out. Thanks to all of you who attended and a big thanks to Andrew Blauvelt for inviting us.

Time is almost up!

DateFriday, January 15, 2010 at 01:18PM

The "Design Your Own App" competition has almost drawn to a close. Today is the last day to submit your sketches, models, drawings, or animations for OSWall App designs. Remember, we're not necessarily looking for extensive documentation of your idea, just a quality idea. If we pick your design, you will have time to develop it more later. So, head over to the "OSWall App Design Competition" page to review the details and upload your work. 

Thanks to those of you who have already submitted! The ideas are wide-ranging, innovative, and exciting. Coming up soon, we will post the ideas for your viewing and solicit comments on what you think are the best strategies. Until then...we want your ideas!

HO! HO! Hometta: HouMinn Designs a Cookie Cutter House

DateFriday, December 4, 2009 at 01:31PM

HouMinn was asked to design a gingerbread version of Draft House as part of a holiday giveaway for Hometta (sketch at left). After some trial and error and a lot of t.l.c., Quyen Ma of Hometta put the plan to paper and finally to our bellies. The result is a delicious model of Draft House. Follow the links to download instructions for building your own edible modern home. When you make your own culinary version of the house, send us a picture. We would love to see the results!

UPDATE: Well, we were fortunate enough to have our gingerbread Draft House go a bit viral this holiday season. The plans were picked up by Otto, Apartment Therapy, Grass Roots Modern, ohdeedoh, Mrs Mogul, Green Muse, Say Yes to Hoboken, and arch daily, just to name a few sites. We would also like to thank these folks who made their own edible Draft Houses. Thanks to the people at Real Food Made Easy and Myrtle Street Review.
