Hasta La Ideas

We wanted to make sure you didn’t miss Fast Company’s 2009 Masters of Design selections, announced late last week. The masters include David Butler, the head of design strategy at Coke; David Adjaye, architect of the new National Museum for African-American History; Lisa Strausfeld, a partner at Pentagram; Alberto Alessi, lead of design company Alessi; and David Rockwell, of Rockwell Group.
