Ping-Ponging the Design Share 3 Invite
When it was time to design a promo graphic for the next Design Share event we thought it would be fun to do a little design ping-pong. Not so much the competitive type like you see on the Layer Tennis website, but a little design back-and-forth sounded like great fun whatever you decide to call it. We didn't have a theme for the event just yet so we decided to play off the number '3' to start generating some ideas.
Ideas for Exploration
- 3 musketeers
- 3 stooges
- 3 French hens
- Earth as the third planet from the Sun
- Gemini is the third astrological symbol
- 3 bears
- 3 wishes
- third time is a charm
- RGB: additive color model
- see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil
- Lithium is atomic number 3
Somehow that led to our beloved space monkey. We posted excerpts to our new favorite design playground [Dribbble] along the way.

And there you have it, another additive design experiment comes together. If you happen to be in the Washington, DC area on June 24, 2010 and would like to attend the event, here's more information. We hope to see you there.
