Make a Difference Project

Can interior design students use creativity to make daily existence better for human beings, other living things or the earth?

The Interior Design Educator's Council Social Responsibility Network is proud to sponsor a project inspired by Bryan Bell, founder of Design Corps, a non-profit group dedicated to world betterment through design. The idea is simple, but potentially profound.

1. Have your interior design students find a real-life problem in the community (encourage them to get off campus) that could be made better through a design of some kind.
2. Have them create and install a small, meaningful design solution, either temporary or permanent.
3. The students then observe what happens when people encounter and use their environmental idea.
