The Society for Environmental Graphic Design announced its upcoming 2009 SEGD Conference + Expo.
Taking place in San Diego, a city where cultures converge and where design, public art, branding, and placemaking blend in a gorgeous setting, this annual event will run from 27-30 May 2009.
"Blurring Lines, Crossing Borders, Ignoring Boundaries," is the theme for the 2009 SEGD Conference + Expo, the only international conference focused on communications in the built environment.
It's a fitting theme not only for San Diego, but for the environmental graphic design community and design in general, says Amy Owen, 2009 conference chair, SEGD director, and Gensler senior associate.
"Design is increasingly global, pan-disciplinary, multi-media, and amorphous, defying all of the traditional boundaries," she explains.
"Where does architecture stop and graphic communication begin?"
"What's the difference between exhibition design and retail store design?"
"How will new media affect design in the built environment?"
The 2009 program celebrates the dynamic, category-defying state of design today with an engaging schedule of presentations, panels, social events, and SEGD's signature Workshops on Wheels that allow busy professionals to get out in the world and experience design projects first hand.
