Hot Design Manifesto Summer

About this event:

n

An interactive conversation that explored the role manifestos play in design practices.

n

In every professional field, there are definitive texts; for example, in Medicine, The Merck Manual comes to mind. The Chicago Graphic Design Club compiled the manifestos that have shaped graphic design’s evolution for over 100 years.

n

Part conversation and part interactive workshop, we explored a collection of manifestos. We discussed and challenged the role of manifestos and discovered how they can impact and shape our practices.

n

We also facilitated an interactive workshop that allowed participants to craft and develop their own manifestos.

n

We had compiled a collection of manifestos on our website.
