An Eye on Design.

A public forum is scheduled for June 26 to gauge interest in the creation of a design center in Baltimore. The Baltimore Sun looks at the issues in this article. A design center would be more than the customary showcase for interior products and furniture. The idea is to create a place where design ideas can be generated to raise the quality of architectural design and urban planning.

We are continually astonished by the lack of direction and care given to the planning and design of the city. This forum looks like a good place to address these issues. The forum will be at Load of Fun studios, 120 W. North Ave. Be there or be continually bereft.
