you know what would have made that email even more awesome?
EMOTICONS!
- grafholic0
good luck!

ok, email sent. i feel very good about my approach. it was very innocent and brief. not desparate and full of 'oh, i'm sorry if i'm bothering you'. the same as if i saw her on the street said 'hey, we met at so and so's' and 'oh, here's my number, i gotta run'. if she finds it creepy, she's overreacting. i'm not worried though. excited? yes!

easy.
1. get a courier uniform and bust inside using her name as the customer contact (you may need to order a courier to your place (nextdoor neighbour's would be better) and take him out to get it, maybe even a few to get the right size).
2. once inside ditch the uniform and swop for a suit. i'd recommend waiting in a toilet cubicle until someone on their own is at the urinal. hide the body in the cubical, locking it from the inside a crawl over / under the wall.
3. find her area and 'bump' into her. use the i was just called here from 'upstairs' for some "important identity related issues".
4. organise to meet her for lunch.
like i said, an easy, honest approach.

"i don't do this often"

*remebering how indecive i am and how many and's, if's, or's and but's there are that i could use to chicken out. screw it - i'm not creepy, and if she's not interested, no big deal - i'll never see her again. i like her, and i'm going after her.
i'll report back as soon as contact is made.

i'm not for the "i don't do this often" part, though the rest of your suggestion, grafholic, was good. Whether it were true or not, it will always come off as a line. I think i like MLVR's idea best and admit that you thought you would meet her again.
- grafholic0
personally (i'm a girl, k?) if i get an email from someone i don't know (but know but never given my address to), it's pretty creepy. sure you have gone long ways to contact, but it doesn't trigger slight bit of romanticism in me but more like "wah stalker!".
why not go for lunch with the buddy of yours to a place she might also go to? or does the company have cafeteria? that way it's easier for her to remember you too.
or if you email her, make sure to include "i really don't do this often but i was given no other options..." type of thing.

do that shit. just say in the email, "i hope i'm not freaking you out here, but..." and then say something funny and lighthearted maybe...and then the design discussion?
- MLVR0
do not say that 'you want someone to talk design with'. Just be honest and ask her out, might be a good idea to tell her pretty much what you've told us, that you thought you'd meet at another party etc. but you didn't and hee we are. blah.
- johndiggity0
this is where camera phones are useful. find someone who works there and get them to do some recon on said suspected hottie and have them shoot you a pic to confirm the target. then i would bust out the design-related email. that was a good call btw. you really have nothing to lose. who cares if some girl you may never see again thinks you're a creep. and if it works, you're in. life's to short not to take advantage of the opportunities.

Life is full of moments like these..and its the desicions you make regarding these moments that make your life what it is.
Do it.

iwmhrngdi.
that is, i would mail her right now god damn it.
- mayo0
^^^^
I've already written it for you. copy and paste!:D
- SteveJobs0
i couldn't get in her building. security is too tight. plus, as much as i'd like to see her again, i actually would feel creepy going to see her in person.
my friend got me a phone number as well, but i think that's too confrontational.
it's email or nothing.
