Designed By Few Set for Oct. 2 with an '80s Theme
This year's Designed By Few competition will hop the symbolic hot tub time machine on Oct. 2, rocking an '80s theme as part of the 2015 Made By Few conference, that little get-together for makers of the web.
DxF is the design component to the tw-day MxF conference, which itself will take place Oct. 1-3 from the River Market District in downtown Little Rock.
The first three MxF speakers were announced last week.
Meanwhile, those interested in applying to compete at DxF can do so here.

DESIGNED BY FEW'S THIRD YEAR TO BE ‘TOTALLY RAD FOR THE CREATIVES, DUDE!’
LITTLE ROCK, AR, April 27, 2015 – Designers from all over will gather on October 2, 2015 for the third annual Designed by Few competition.
Designed by Few is a fast paced break-off event of the two day conference, Made by Few. Calvin Bramlett, this year’s organizer of Designed by Few, says, "Designed By Few is a sick competition with some of the raddest designers going head to head in an all out design war. You better get your tights, headbands, and all things neon ready- this year we are rockin’ an 80’s theme with some mega jams!"
Three designers will be selected from submissions made via the event's website. Designers may submit their work to compete and spectators can watch the chosen designers compete while learning techniques and sharing with others who are gathered to network. Light refreshments and music will be on hand and incredible memories are guaranteed. Tickets are included in the conference cost for Made by Few.
This year, competitors will be designing a new logo and brand concept for the THEA Foundation.
The Thea Foundation is a 501 (3)(c) nonprofit public foundation founded in 2001 by Paul and Linda Leopoulos soon after the untimely death of their compassionate and talented daughter, Thea Kay. Thea thrived socially and academically after discovering her gifts in art, writing, dance and drama. The Thea Foundation strives to carry Thea’s legacy forward by supporting other young people, who, like Thea, find confidence through their involvement in the arts and by bringing awareness about the important, character-building role the arts play in young peoples’ lives.
Designed by Few is a great event for artists, designers and creatives. With the national draw of Made by Few, we expect to see even more designers casting their names for a chance to compete for cash prizes, bragging rights and more!
The team at Made by Few encourage designers to submit their application to compete in the 2015 event as soon as possible. Visit www.designedbyfew.com for more information.
