Join the Retail Design Institute at the Harvard Club, one of the earliest New York City landmarks, Tuesday April 21st, 2009.

Kenneth A. Gruskin, President and founder of Gruskin Group, a leading architectural & branding design firm for the retail sector, will discuss his firm's integrated design practice and rapid prototyping process. Projects such as the Verizon Experience Store, Peter Cooper Village, Jordan's Lifestyle Store, and the Verizon Wireless Evolution Kiosk will be highlighted. He will demonstrate how projects are developed to maintain design integrity, quality of detail and functionality when a firm receives the client phone call to design & produce a project within an impossible timeframe.

We have all faced the "impossible deadline" and chosen to accept the challenge. Come out and learn how "old school" design methods coupled with "fast-track fabrication" can turn the IMPOSSIBLE into the POSSIBLE and speed the concept to market in record time.
