Join fellow designers and renowned teacher/practitioners in Portland this summer for intensive studio projects, critiques, faculty presentations and informal gatherings that explore the essentials of the design process. Get down to fundamentals with other established and developing designers and educators with the common goals of immersion and growth.

Make new connections between perceptions, process and people from a range of disciplines, approaches, professions and regions. Soak up fresh perspectives and test proven design principles. Each teacher/practitioner drives a structured, in-depth, hands-on exploration of theoretical and practical issues in visual communication.

Do. Play. Work. Relax and exchange ideas, stories and the pressures of politics and deadlines for the chance to eat, sleep and dream design.
