• How Meaningful Design Can Save the World

  by Eve Simon

  The mission: To create a visually impactful, cutting edge online user experience that encourages people to take action for your cause. No sweat, right?For designers working in the non-profit sector, this is the challenge we face everyday. Organizations who don’t see the true cost of bad design, or those distracted by the low-hanging fruit of mere eye candy (i.e. “wasted pretty”) can make it even harder to achieve this ambitious goal. In this core conversation, we will share the secrets to designing award-winning visuals for your cause that both look amazing and propel an audience to engage. Through real life examples & some unorthodox client/boss management techniques, you’ll walk away with strategies to conceptualize, curate and create work that really can change the world.
