San Francisco Design Week is Coming June 14-20th
Since 2006, AIGA San Francisco has organized San Francisco Design Week as a way to reach out to a diverse community of over 20,000 Bay Area design professionals as well as local businesses, non-profits, entrepreneurs, students, the design-savvy public, tourists, and more.
The mission of Design Week raise public awareness of Design and, more importantly, San Francisco Bay Area Design including but not limited to: Graphic, Industrial, Interactive, Interior, Fashion, Architecture, Advertising, etc. To showcase and celebrate design’s impact and value in business innovation and efforts towards sustainability, social impact, human rights and political reform.
Through cross marketing, web presence, e-mail blasts, and posters distributed throughout the city, participating companies and organizations will not only reach AIGA SF’s members, but also many other design organizations, business communities, consumers, tourists, museums-goers, and students.
AIGA SF will be partnering with the San Francisco chapters of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA), the Interaction Design Association (IxDA), the Society for Environmental Graphic Design (SEGD), and Adobe Systems, to sponsor a full week of events highlighting the diversity and professionalism of the design community around the bay. Our goal is to raise public awareness of the impact that all design—graphic, product, interior, fashion, architecture, advertising—has in the San Francisco Bay Area.
