Welcome to the Design Bay Area and San Francisco Design Week community!

This is a safe space to discuss design as a profession, celebrate and promote product launches, brands and the creative community.

We want everyone to be part of our community and have their voice heard.

To help everyone enjoy our community, we ask that when you post on any of our Design Bay Area or San Francisco Design Week Platforms or Mobile App, you keep in mind the following:

  • We reserve the right to remove any content or events for any reason, but especially if it is in conflict with our Community Guidelines or content not related to the Bay Area Design Community.
    • Only content and events related to the California Design Community or Adjacent Industries is allowed to be posted or published on our platforms.
    • In order to focus on elevating the San Francisco Bay Area design community, events and conferences taking place outside of our region will be promptly removed and the user blocked from our platforms.
  • We do not allow defamatory, indecent, offensive, profane, discriminatory, misleading, unlawful or threatening comments.
  • Personal attacks, name-calling, trolling and abuse will not be tolerated.
  • No Spamming, or direct selling of products. We are not a marketplace.
  • We reserve the right to delete comments at our discretion and block any repeat offenders. We will remove content that is fraudulent, deceptive or misleading.
  • Coordinated group attacks will not be tolerated.
  • Respect that other people in the community have had different life experiences and may have a different perspective to yours. We welcome different viewpoints.
