Open Call For Entries: Digging Deeper, Building Blocks for Sustainable Design
AIGA San Francisco, The SF Chapter of the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA) and the Interaction Designers Association (IxDA) would like to introduce you to this year’s Digging Deeper, Building Blocks for Sustainable Design – A multi-disciplinary design competition addressing real urban needs.
On the afternoon of Sunday Sept. 27th the Digging Deeper 2009 program began with two informative and inspiring presentations. A leading systems ecologist and CEO of Natural Logic teamed up with the Greening Director of the Office of the Mayor of San Francisco to deliver a design brief. They describe issues around urban food supply, health and agriculture relevant to the City of San Francisco and all urban areas. The presentations were specifically formatted to be the foundation of this competition, bringing industrial, graphic and interaction designers, architects and urban planners together to help solve real urban problems.
This is a call to action for all design communities.
Please view these half hour clips and help us improve the City of San Francisco:
Part 1: Approach and Inspiration by Gil Friend
Part 2: Competition Problem Statement by Astrid Haryati
All entries are due by midnight Jan. 31st 2010. There will be Cash Prizes for placing 1st – 3rd in each of two categories.
