What if a national team of designers from multiple disciplines were assigned to tackle one Cincinnati challenge? What problem would you want them to take on? We're not just talking about aesthetic changes, but big-picture civic issues that require high-level strategic thinking. What opportunity could use a blast of creative problem-solving that only a designer can provide?
CEOs for Cities, a national network of urban leaders dedicated to building and sustaining the next generation of great American cities, wants to hear your ideas.
If they like them, they will send a team of designers, sponsored by GOOD magazine, intent on helping to tackle one of our challenges and present their solutions at the CEO for Cities national Strategy Session March 18-20 in San Diego.
Applicants can submit their proposals in a short email to
[email protected]. Please provide enough detail to get the designer started, and be prepared to answer additional questions that come directly from the designer who is matched with your proposal.
Deadline to submit proposals is January 25.
