Celebrating National Design Week
AIGA has announced that November 18-24 is National Design Week. Well, so what, you may ask. It means lots of great activities this week for the graphic design community in DC, for one thing. But it also sparked conversations at Graves Fowler about what “good design” means and how design influences our own lives. This week we’ll post some of our own encounters with design good and bad and invite you to share yours with us, too.
BTW… Design Week actually began four years ago with the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in New York, It’s a venue to announce their National Design Award winners. A pretty interesting list. Check it out.
