Hello! Lovely to meet you!
Welcome friends! Lovely to have you here. So where exactly is "here"? And what on earth is a ThinkerBelle? "Here" is a blog space on all things that interest this little strategist, namely design, social media and technology. I like to think that "ThinkerBelle" (my strategist persona) lives at the intersection of these three domains. I hope you enjoy this space, please comment and don't be a stranger. I appreciate you being here. Follow me in the tweetverse if you like @thaz7. Stay groovy.

As we wander through the world, there are some spaces that just take you off guard. It’s not necessarily just those museums, bars, hotels, restaurants, design shops/advertising agencies, that can be striking and fun–unexpected places like libraries, even schools are finally places and spaces to be inspired. Many times it’s simple colors/images painted on the walls. Other times it’s the richness or inviting feeling of the space itself.

We always say “it’s about creating experiences” yet still relatively unexplored is the idea of incorporating rich digital experiences into physical spaces/design. Not just a “well designed piece” of technology (the slick LCD screen or touch interface), but truly having digital experiences built (mindfully) into the design. Will be amazing to see how we can start to “paint” with digital.
