Video: AIGA Membership Changes

When you join AIGA, you are joining forces with a local chapter as well as a nationwide network. Together, we work to increase design’s influence and expand opportunities for designers around the world.

Beginning this month, AIGA is shifting from a membership model based on the stage of an individual’s career to one that reflects the member’s interest in, and commitment to, AIGA and the design profession. Executive Director Richard Grefé discusses the change and describes AIGA’s aim to achieve a more open and inclusive community.

Stefan Bucher, whose Daily Monster inkblot creations have been connecting with web audiences for the past five years, now has an iPhone and iPad app. And it’s spooky good fun.

From her investigations at the leading edge of the California New Wave to her pioneering work in digital media and hybrid processes, April Greiman, 1998 AIGA Medalist, sets an example for future generations of designers to be willing to ask the questions that need to be asked.
