Top Ten Things To Know About Event Design: #10

Where did I find my inspiration for this?

To end the week on an inspirational note, every Friday for the next 10 weeks I am planning to post an item off my Top 10 list for event design.

This week -- Number 10:

Constantly be on the search for inspiration

I always say that a good designer studies other designers
but a GREAT designer studies EVERYTHING!

And by "study" I mean, be aware of the world around you
and how it can relate back to event design.
Some things to study:

Music

Culture -- Modern and Ancient

Broadway plays, TV and Film

Cuisine and Restaurant Design

Visual Merchandising

New Products


AN EXAMPLE

Here is the ad where I found the inspiration for the photo at the top of this post. Just browsing through a magazine I noticed that cool room divider and filed this away. A month later, the look was the perfect accent element for a booth AOO Events had at an industry tradeshow!

Here's to creating inspired events and living an inspired life!
