SPEAKING EVENTS

IDSA presents Design Voices: a recurring series of short-form virtual design events that bring together top design leaders to present, discuss, and debate current trends and specific practice areas.

Each 1-hour Design Voices webinar offers an in-depth discussion and presentations from industry experts, followed by a moderated Q&A where attendees can post questions and interact with the presenters. Topics are pulled from a variety of sources, including IDSA's Special Interest Sections, in-the-moment design trends, and subjects requested by our community.

The upcoming Design Voices sessions will be curated and hosted by Başak Altan, IDSA, a design strategist, educator, future thinker, and connector.

INTERNATIONAL DESIGN AWARDS GALA

Feeling inspired and energized after witnessing the incredible talent celebrated at the International Design Awards Gala in Oslo, Norway this week. It was an honor to present awards to some of the winners and to stand alongside such visionary changemakers.
A special highlight: meeting Mayor Anne Lindboe of Oslo and Ellen de Vibe, the former Chief Town Planner whose work has shaped this beautiful city’s future.
Deep thanks to Mr. Farmani for setting the stage with such an extraordinary platform for design excellence, and to the powerhouse behind the scenes—Hannah Lillethun—for orchestrating every detail of this unforgettable event.
Design has the power to shape better futures—and this night was a beautiful reminder of that.
