WHAT AN IDEA!

You've been reading the newspaper and an idea pops up that you are sure can solve an important community issue.....or since you were younger you have heard this thought running around in your head......well, the Design Center is a creation that enables you to take that thought to its next step, and expand it so it can be tested. Possibly it can be tested, further developed, and tested some more!

The Design Center is your sketchpad, like the architect has handy paper and pencil (in the old days) for doodling. Except the Design Center is alert. It recognizes the structure of your idea, and it induces the central issue to come forward. The Design Center is flexible, and bobs and weaves as you tease the idea from wispy collages of dreams to more and more practical and complete strategy. 

The Design Center does not do the creative process for you. It does it with you.

Here is how to start:

1. Make sure you want to make something happen that benefits you, your family, your neighborhood, your city, or someone somewhere. Make sure it is something you are really passionate about.

2. Register with the Design Center;

3. Email us that you want to subscribe to the Design Center "my project" page;

4. Have some fun and write out, sketch, cut and paste, your idea description;

5. Write on the bottom the date, your name, and say "copyright by" in front of that information; (everything you do is yours. we protect your ownership of the ideas. When the time is right, we steer you to the Trademark office if it gets that far).

6. Send the material via email to:

Director@futurenowus.com

7. We will review your thoughts. We will get back to you within three days if we think this is an idea that you should pursue with us further.

                 There are costs for us to support idea/project development.

                     We show you those costs, and we show you how you

                     can work to generate income to cover our planning costs.

                      If the idea is beyond our scope right now, we may make some

                     suggestions about what to do to get it ready to bring to us.

8. You decide how you want to proceed.

We want to hear from you!
