Designers are thinkers, makers, and problem-solvers—explorers of possibility. We pursue opportunities through various methods, materials, technology, and media, guided by purpose and function while implementing formal dexterity. What issues have you encountered that could be solved more effectively, efficiently, equitably, and harmoniously? The Idea Design Competition is a chance to present design solutions of any method, material, technology, and media, whether a singular item or a complex system, which implements design thinking in the creative process.
