<title>Bio: Ron Pompei, Principal and Creative Director
</title><link>http://www.pompeiad.com/articles/9_86
</link><description><![CDATA[ Ron Pompei began his creative exploration as an artist, creating light art installations and sculptures that Philadelphia Magazine cited as “changing the face of Philadelphia.” Since then, as principal of the New York City based creative services firm Pompei A.D., Ron has gone on to do equally ground breaking work in design, experience branding, and cultural entrepreneurship. Ron’s design philosophy is centered on C3: Commerce, Culture, and Community, the so-called “third place” outside of home and work, where social interaction is facilitated by commerce and culture. He believes C3 can revitalize many suburban and urban venues and transform them into meeting places where people can shop, learn and socialize. ]]>
