Design Jam - An Oakland HW Meetup Event
Welcome to the first (annual?) Oakland HW Meetup Design JAM, where creativity meets competition! Whether you’re a pro or just passionate about solving problems, this event will give you the chance to showcase your skills, meet other designers, and grow.
We will be designing to a theme that will be revealed later; we'll then create presentations and share our models and ideas together.
Expect a fun challenge, at least one twist, and a final showcase to strut your stuff.
PLEASE BRING A DEVICE TO MODEL / RENDER ON
