AIGA, the professional association for design, advances design as a professional craft, strategic advantage, and vital cultural force. As the largest community of design advocates, AIGA brings together practitioners, enthusiasts, and patrons to amplify the voice of design and creates the vision for a collective future. AIGA defines global standards and ethical practices, guides design education, inspires designers and the public, enhances professional development, and makes powerful tools and resources accessible to all. ChalkTalk is a human-centered design methodology aimed at fostering better collaboration between communities and government and envisioning more resilient transportation infrastructure in the built environment. To fund these initiatives, more and more cities are looking towards local tax-based funding options like mobility bonds which require significant public input, communication, and buy-in.

They’re particularly interested in self-reflection as a tool to be better collaborators, teammates, and leaders.

Examples of systems from around the world were collected and organized into a book for review by the Department of Transportation (DOT). Based on a list of symbols that DOT requested, Geismar’s committee reviewed the research, selected the symbols that made sense both conceptually and in terms of design, then determined which new symbols needed to be added. Roger Cook and Don Shanosky were hired to draw the icons and develop a cohesive system with a consistent graphic language. This session will introduce, explore, and discuss possibilities for a living database that connects design research/writing communities with similar interests but varied experiences.

Self-reflection is a multi-purpose powerhouse in this toolbox—providing the self-awareness that opens the door to asking, grappling with, and sometimes answering the tough questions designers face. And, because design isn’t a solo endeavor, self-reflection can also help us connect with and co-create communities of support, practice, and action. Join us for a panel discussion on how to strike the balance between marketing and design for good. We will explore the Cannes Lions Grand Prix-winning case of ADLaM, an alphabet created by two Fulani brothers for a language spoken by over 60 million people across West Africa.

From intriguing mainstage presenters, to in-depth symposia that allow attendees to dive deeper into topics facing our industry, we entice the community to imagine the future. Glen collaborates with a wide range of clients to translate complex content into engaging visual and environmental experiences. Glen operates as an editorial adviser and designer, driving the narratives that shape MTWTF’s response to the topics concerning organizations today— from housing shortages to innovative workspaces to New York City’s music scene. His collaborations with performing and visual arts institutions include signage and environmental graphics for Red Bull Music Academy, the Claire Tow Theater at Lincoln Center, the Brooklyn Museum and MoMA.

Get ready to redefine the boundaries of creativity at the 2024 AIGA Design Conference! Join us for a groundbreaking virtual experience that pushes the boundaries of what a design conference can be. This year, we're embracing our theme, "Margins," and exploring the uncharted territories of design. Think outside the box as we scribble in the margins and redefine the future of design together. Jason Alejandro is a Puerto Rican graphic designer and educator based between NYC and Philadelphia. He is an Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at the College of New Jersey.

Liese Zahabi is an assistant professor of interaction/graphic design in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of New Hampshire. She previously served as faculty at the University of Maryland in College Park and at Weber State University in Utah. She earned a Master of Graphic Design degree from North Carolina State University, and a BFA from Eastern Michigan University.

He directs the multi-disciplinary Ampersand Studio, and is the founder and faculty coordinator of ColorBar, a unique analog RISO service center, design lab, and maker space where he leads a team of student RISO Design Fellows. He’s been collecting vinyl records since he was a teenager in the 1980s but has never bought one for the sleeve art alone. Brody leads his practice with experimentation, exploration, and discovery through influential projects such as FUSE and the ADF.

The discussion will launch from the position that Design has become a valuable part of many sectors of society, from large and small businesses to non-profits and allied fields. Design crosses disciplines and is valued as an integral part of problem-seeking and problem-solving and as such, sits in different colleges, schools, and institutes across campuses. What are the implications from the way design is now seen and situated in higher education compared to where it was situated in the past, where it was often located in Design Schools or Departments of Art. The facilitators will capture the findings as part of a project visualizing design education’s place.

To support this thinking, MTWTF standardized the language of signage, visually emphasized the recycling points and positioned “depositing unrecyclables in the landfill bin” at the end of the process. MTWTF created communication and messaging guidelines to help Etsy introduce these best practices, and support them within their particular corporate culture. Destani June is a designer, writer, illustrator—creator of things, whose work revolves around understanding people and exploring how technology and design, function and beauty, converge to solve people problems.
