The infamous Neville Brody has decided to speak up against design conferences. His Research Studios is putting on the Anti Design Festival in London 9.18 to 9.26 counter to the London Design Festival. This is a pretty brave and needed reaction to the “industry” and the ever increasing number of design conferences. Research Studios is now taking submissions of work. Below are a few prompts that can be a source of inspiration.
