Alex99 shares the 10 Principles of Good Design he picked up during his visit to the Dieter Rams exhibit: http://tinyurl.com/7jovbb9
One of the oldest (and best) venues around. One night you’ll take a chance on a new band, the next you’ll see someone who’s already a star. Either way, pray the place sells out so you snag a poster.
"Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous. Any fame is a by-product of making something that means something." -Banksy
"The BEST beignets EVER! It's also next to the French Market & in walking distance to all the famous streets like Bourbon. A great area and "must do" in Nola. :)" - Allison Stuart, Community Liason
One of our favorite sources of tech-y goodness here at the 99designs office! - Stephanie Thai, Community Intern
Excellent beer and sausages. Great for Sunday brunch and early morning beers...if you're into that kind of thing. - Bill Bowman, Customer Support
Online gallery and SF location at 816 Sutter...cool exhibits like the Wes Anderson tribute! - Doug Wright, Community Team
A small (but treasured!) hole in the wall museum nestled in SF. - Doug Wright, Community Team
Probably my favorite SF contemporary art gallery. With an artist roster including Sandow Birk and Walter Robinson, CK exhibitions are consistent quality. - Alex Bigman, Community Intern
CHICKEN WINGS (trust me, they're a-m-a-z-i-n-g!!) - Stephanie Thai, Community Intern
It's a hipster Chinese food restaurant! They have a more eclectic selection than a typical Chinese place, and everything is deliciously spicy. - Kaitlyn Ellison, Community Intern
This book store has the best selection of graphic design books in San Francisco, plus it's in Japantown. - Matt Basham, In-house Designer
Eat Thai in the TL. Get the red curry with duck---oh yeah! - Filip Reese, Community Staff
A MUST for breakfast! I eat here at least 1x/wk. Try the ham that's made fresh everyday by the sweet lil' Korean lady. Don't come if patience isn't your strong suit. - Stephanie Thai, Community Intern
Pretty much my favorite place in Chicago - the Museum of Contemporary Art. - Kaitlyn Ellison, Community Intern
Awesome bookstore completely devoted to design of all kinds. - Jason Aiken, Community Director
SKEE BALL, POOL & TAXIDERMY. I'm there! You can also be sure to find Jamie from Support here as well. - Stephanie Thai, Community Intern
This comfort food haven offers the best breakfast in Berkeley. Orange cardamon challah french toast & potato cheese pancakes never fail. - Alex Bigman, Community Intern
Dueling piano bar downstairs features 2 pianists who know about every song you can imagine. Fill a song request form & they'll play it! Always a rowdy and epic time. - Kelly Inglis, Community Intern
Check out the green glass ship in the ground (a statement of hope, or dispair for our future?): http://www.yerbabuenagardens.com/features/public-art.html - Doug Wright, Community Team
Scientific Magic! It's like a zoo and an aquarium and a natural history museum combined. And they have an albino boa constrictor AND an albino alligator. - Kaitlyn Ellison, Community Intern
Finally, a museum where you're allowed to touch things! - Kaitlyn Ellison, Community Intern
Contemporary art district in Beijing, located in abandoned factories. You can wander around it for hours and never get bored! Super sweet. - Kaitlyn Ellison, Community Intern
Great place with a consistently good selection of artists; definitely my favorite gallery in the city. - Stephanie Thai, Community Intern
Outstanding contemporary Southeast Asian Art, in Downtown Singapore. - Kaitlyn Ellison, Community Intern
See non-releasable CA wild animals closer than you can imagine. Birds of prey overhead, go eye-to-eye with native mammals, and reptiles & amphibians are around the corner. - Meghan, Office Manager
