We'll have more info forthcoming about the Dwell on Design conference June 26-28 at the Convention Center, as well as the dinner and a movie event on Saturday, June 27 at the Geffen at MOCA, which features architectural film screenings and a mobile Restaurant Row. 
Coolhaus A meltable feast.
But in the meantime, the polls are about to close in the Dwell's contest to name the next Coolhaus ice cream sandwich flavor. Remember, the name must reference a work or architect/designer of note, and specify the ice cream and cookie components. Warning! Coming up with archi-food puns can be addictive. Send your suggestions to coolhauscontest@dwell.com. The winning submission will be served at the Geffen on the 27th.
Get a taste of the exciting food-related goodies planned for Dwell on Design by reading an interview with Evan Kleiman and a behind-the-scenes look at the AIA/LA's Restaurant Design Awards judges, and how you can add your own vote.
