If you’re in New York City this weekend for the ICFF, we’d like to remind you about our Reclaiming Design ^[5] event at HauteGreen ^[6] this afternoon. You can’t miss the HauteGREEN show ^[6], so why not combine a visit to the exhibition with a visit to our event, which features Dutch design icon Tejo Remy ^[7], Dwell Editor Sam Grawe ^[8], and Brooklyn designers Carlos Salgado of Scrapile ^[9] and Matt Gagnon ^[10] to speak about recycling in design. Reclaiming Design is this afternoon at 5pm, so come by and check it out!

Moderated by us (Jill Fehrenbacher ^[11] and Emily Pilloton ^[12]), the panel will discuss the use of recycled and reclaimed materials in the design process and the implications for both concept and environmentalism. Seating is limited and we need a head count, so if you are interested in attending, PLEASE RSVP TO ReclaimingDesign (at) gmail (dot) com ^[13].

*Just to give you all a heads up – there is a requested donation for the HauteGREEN show ^[6] of $10. Donation is optional, but please remember that this is a non-profit organization, and we are all volunteering a lot of our time (and carrying a lot of the expenses for the show on our personal credit cards), so donation would be very much appreciated. And it gets you a year long subscription to Good Magazine, ^[14] so its win-win for all.
