ilovedesign.com goes LIVE - 8x8 London event announced!

May, 11th 2009 posted by Sarah Harwood

ilovedesign.com Live 1 July 2009

In-spi-ra-tion: a divine influence directly and immediately exerted upon the mind or soul; an animating action or influence; a result of inspired activity.

Where do you get your inspiration? On 1st July at Imperial College, London, that’s what ilovedesign.com LIVE will be asking 8 highly talented designers. And to make it even more interesting we’re giving them just 8 minutes to share what inspires them, where they get their ideas from and what makes them get out of bed in the morning.

ilovedesign.com LIVE in association with Design Week Magazine, is pleased to announce a new live design event which follows on from the sell-out David Carson Seminar last summer. The event is aimed at the design community from aspiring graphic design students to established professionals looking for inspiration, entertainment, and the chance to have a chat (and a beer!) after work!

8x8 London takes place from 7pm on Wednesday 1st July, at Imperial College, Kensington, London. Tickets are priced at £15 each with a student concession price of £10 (students should bring their student ID with them). The event isn’t profit-making and ticket revenue will cover some of the costs of the event. To purchase a ticket and find out more, visit http://ilovedesign.eventbrite.com/.

Hear the latest news on who’s speaking at the event, our exclusive media partner, a competition to design the event logo and the latest updates at ilovedesign.com – look out for notifications and don’t forget to visit the blogs regularly for the latest news.

If you’re interested in presenting at this or future events, or have any questions about the event please contact ilovedesign.com

And before I forget, my inspiration? The “divine influence” of the Beatles Rubber Soul album, the view from the top of Snowdon and Kellogg’s Coco Pops.
