Design Refugee
Give me your tired, your poor,
Your caffeinated masses yearning to design free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the over-worked, design refugees to me,
I lift my mouse beside the golden screen!
Today too many designers lack:
- Proficiency in computer-based design tools.
- An understanding of the design challenges posed by computer-based media.
Our - admittedly immodest - goal is to create an alternate design education community where:
- Students can supplement their traditional education to better prepare themselves for entry into the workplace.
- Professionals from other fields can gain the skills needed to transition to a career in design.
- Traditional designers can gain the skills needed to survive in a digital world.
