You can’t force creativity, so creating an environment to inspire you and your colleagues on a daily basis is something that shouldn’t be under estimated nor should it break the bank.

Design Network North’s latest ‘Rise & Design’ meeting isn’t just about the thinking behind how other people have created or changed current workspaces but it aims to leave you with simple and practical tips on how you can make your workspace more creative quickly and easily.

The speakers include:

  • ‘Streets, crossroads and laybys’
    Tim Bailey, Architect, xsite architecture LLP 
     
  • Creativity at work
    Paul Glaister, Workpattern and Ami Brabbins of Forward thinking

You will also be more than welcome to get involved in a ‘Question and Answer’ session with the speakers. As part of this meeting, there will be an opportunity for you to discuss ideas or issues with other companies about how it could make a difference to your business as well as a brief insight into Design Network North’s activities.

After the meeting, please stay around for tea and coffee to discuss any requirements or issues you may have with other Design Network North members and Design Network North team.

Please contact Becky Strong if you have any queries on 0191 516 4400 or at enquiries@designnetworknorth.org

 

About Rise & Design
Design Network North members meet on the second Friday of each month to share good practice, learn from experts and to collaborate on issues, projects and needs.
 

Each meeting has a specific theme and will feature presentations from experts in the field. You will also be able to discuss with other companies how applying these ideas could make a difference to your business.

This is also a great opportunity to raise any ideas or issues that you would like to see feature in future Design Network North activities.

Design Network North



Design Network North supports innovative companies, helping them to utilise high quality design skills and processes.

We accomplish this by offering specialised product design, industrial design and new product development support.

Good design is the key to future competitiveness. At a time when product quality standards are universally high and costs have been driven relentlessly downward, design and improved functionality have become the most important factors in the marketplace.

Intended to enhance regional companies’ ability to employ high-quality design, skills and processes, Design Network North works closely with other regional, national and international design projects, and helps those without access to the relevant design skills, achieve their aspirations for growth. Design Network North also holds regular networking events, 'Rise & Design', and delivers onsite Design Performance Workshops to embed good design within your business.

The Northern Design Centre will form a regional focal point for use of design by North East England’s businesses and service providers. Throughout each year, the design centre will feature work not just from local product designers but examples from all areas of design.

Funded by Gateshead Council and the European Regional Development Fund, the network is co-ordinated by RTC North Ltd in Sunderland.
