IDEO has long been one of my favorite companies to watch for their innovative design solutions. One of the most striking aspects of their work is that they don’t try to hide their work, but rather share it and make it public, in hopes of making life better. Herein lies the concept for their latest platform OpenIDEO which invites anyone to join the site, share a design challenge and collaborate and develop ideas with other people who think like you (or maybe help you think differently). Check out the video and click HERE for more information, or vote for it here on the Cooper Hewitt’s People’s Design Awards.
