“Hey, I’m coming to Cleveland for a few days. Any recommendations for places to check out?”
Who hasn’t heard this? As a designer, our friends and family rely on us to hear about the cool spots they probably can’t find on the regular tourism lists.
Curated, an iPhone and soon-to-be Android app, is a collection of great places to check out around Cleveland that have been carefully curated by local creatives. Categories range from coffee shops and restaurants to galleries and architecture, the kinds of spots you’d want to know about if you were spending time in a new city. And, we hope, some new favorites for the locals too.
Curated has locations grouped into categories, but also has a way to filter by neighborhood. So if you’re planning on spending time on the west side you can isolate those areas to see what will be within walking distance. Have favorite places or planning a trip and want to bookmark them? Tap the “heart” icon to save it to your favorites.
In a way, Curated is the anti-Yelp; you won’t find hundreds of places you don’t care about. Every Curated location was specifically hand picked by AIGA Cleveland members. A quick bit of info on the location is complimented by a snippet on why you, a creative-minded person, should check it out.
