miss it. Though not specifically a business show, Here by Design II displayed locally created products that
illustrate the fascinating points where art and commerce intersect. Featured were cutting-edge Minnesota
furniture makers (such a Blu Dot, a firm with a growing international rep, and Baltix, whose office furniture--pictured below--is made from recycled materials) and superb packaging design (including Schroeder Dairy's
cool milk bottles). The local design scene deserves to be better known, and this show raised the profile."

“A LOOK AT DESIGN IN THE TWIN CITIES” by Glenn Gordon
“…it is good to see so much thought about design all assembled in one place, especially work by young
designers testing their chops. The show makes me look forward to the next edition, two years from now.”
