Here's the CFPs I posted to http://designcalls.wordpresss.com for July 2010. Cheers. Fil VAF 2011: Vernacular Architecture Forum (May/June 2011, Jamaica)<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/2010/07/28/vaf-2011-vernacular-architecture-forum-mayjune-2011-jamaica/> July 28, 2010<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=286&action=edit> The Vernacular Architecture Forum invites paper proposals for its Annual Meeting in Falmouth Jamaica May 31 – June 4, 2011. Papers may address vernacular and everyday buildings, sites, or cultural landscapes worldwide. Submissions on all vernacular topics are welcome, but we encourage papers that explore topics related to the conference themes of heritage tourism as the new colonialism; climate and vernacular design; creolization, hybridity, acculturation and other models for cultural engagement; and race, slavery, and place. Papers should be twenty-minutes in length, although proposals for complete sessions, roundtable discussions, or other innovative means that facilitate scholarly discourse are also welcome.

Nordes 2011 in Helsinki is the 4th in a series of biannual conferences, which has included conferences in Copenhagen in 2005, Stockholm in 2007 and Oslo in 2009. Organized by Nordes – an open network of people interested in design research in the Nordic countries – the conference is attended by about 200 people and has rapidly been established as an important venue for design research. It serves several constituencies in design, ranging from design studies, history and management to professional design and practice-based research in art, crafts and design. Participation is also open to people from outside the Nordic countries. This website will be continually updated with information about the conference.
