The Lab at Velocity
images from Matte Stephens
A Seattle Design Meetup has emerged from the Design*Sponge Biz Lady night and I couldn't be happier. It's being called The Lab and the first event will be April 16th at the South Lake Union Velocity store and the guest speaker is Matte Stephens, who is moving from Alabama to Portland, Oregon. More details will be announced as they are finalized.
A big thanks go to Paola of Mirror Mirror and John Tusher of Velocity for setting this up. To read more about how it emerged see this entry at Paola's blog and her entry on The Lab with more about Matte Stephens can be found here.
Oooh! Nice! I love Matte Stephens' work.

I love Matte's prints and for a while now have been thinking about ordering some on Etsy. What a good choice for a speaker!

John Tusher is one of the nicest people I've ever met. I went to Seattle in November and happened to meet him at Velocity. Actually, everyone I met at Velocity was so warm and friendly now that I think about it! He was so helpful in helping my boyfriend and me find a nice place for dinner at the last minute on a Saturday night, right down to calling a cab for us. I love Seattle...

Oh, I may go sign up for that. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of spare time for the meetups I'm currently a member of.
