The new 3M Design Center features a mural that reminds the design team to be creative without boundaries.
The following post is brought to you by 3M. Our partners are hand-picked by the Design Milk team because they represent the best in design.
When the new 3M Design Center, at the St. Paul (MN) headquarters, opened in July 2016, Chief Design Officer Eric Quint wanted something a little special for one of the concrete walls in his new design space. He wanted more than the usual framed artwork, he wanted the space itself to become the frame of a piece of art, something demonstrating the result of real time creativity that happens when people collaborate and let their imagination flow spontaneously. ?Collaborative creativity is a theme introduced when I started in my design leadership role at 3M, the idea was to have a piece of graffiti in the Design Center that would reflect the cultural values of our 3M Design team? according to Quint. The uncommon connections between 3M technologies and materials inspired great solutions and art.
