On Thursday, April 9, 2015, we hosted a Shopify + Dribbble Meetup in our Toronto office. We opened our doors to nearly 200 designers for drinks, discussions, and a design challenge.
Dribbble co-founders Dan Cederholm and Rich Thornett made the journey north to join in! More than a dozen of Shopify's designers came out for the evening, proud to show off the creative environment they get to work in every day.
For our design challenge, attendees were given a piece of paper that looked like a name tag. They were given pens, markers, and pencils, with the instruction to introduce themselves. You can see some of the results in our banner image above, but scroll to the bottom of this post to see a compilation of all the entries we received. They're pretty stellar.
Here are some photo highlights captured by the talented Andrew Williamson:
