Established during 2007, The Center for Design Study is a not-for-profit foundation, which actively promotes and supports all forms of thoughtfully applied design. The Center believes in the power of design to inspire, persuade, alter beliefs, lead to new ideas and create consequential, sustainable change. To enrich intellectual dialogues and educational efforts surrounding design, the Center provides an inclusive environment where the design conversation can flourish. Both an ideal and physical place, the Center is continuously evolving, shaped and reshaped by all who support, engage and contribute.

The Center is currently devoted to preserving an icon of American design, the Gastrotypographicalassemblage. To learn more about how you can support the Center and its initiatives, please visit the donation section of this web site.
