What Is Good Design Now?New York readers, you are invited to a Slate panel.
Updated Monday, March 23, 2009, at 12:09 PM ETNew York readers: This one's for you. On Thursday evening, March 26, Slate is hosting a panel discussion about the future of good design, moderated by Adam Gopnik. The panelists will be potter and designer Jonathan Adler, architect and landscape architect Ahmad Sardar-Afkhami, and graphic designer and Pentagram partner Paula Scher. The subjects this distinguished bunch will discuss include how the economy is changing design, how the Internet is changing design, and how design is changing everything else. The first 25 Slate readers to respond to this posting will get two free tickets to the discussion.
