As designers, we understand the inherent power that exists within what we produce - the power to influence behavior.
And it's why we, as designers, should be cognizant of the impact our work has - on individuals, corporations, society. Ourselves.
The AIGA (Re)designAwards are about rethinking that power and redirecting it to do the right thing by supporting and motivating the emerging ethos of a sustainable economy.
This design competition is looking to recognize the best of the best in sustainable graphic design created by designers in the US.
The 2009 (Re)design Awards will recognize those designers whose work best represents an environmentally and socially sustainable approach in every element of their professional lives.
Three classes of awards will be bestowed in two design categories.
Selected businesses will be recognized for their role as forward-thinking organizations effectively using design to advance the importance of sustainability or social responsibility.
Call for entries is from June 1, 2009 to July 31, 2009.
