shift Design Symposium

The design world is in motion. Ever-evolving, mesmerizing, perplexing. Join AIGA Houston to examine the “shift,” a one-day design symposium in Houston, where we explore the evolution of the design industry and the constantly shifting role of designers as design disciplines expand, overlap, and converge. We invite students, professionals, and leaders who view design as a strategic advantage and a powerful storyteller to engage in sharp conversations and share insightful perspectives.
