RSA-US Student Design Awards aka #SDAUS, is an award program to inspire collaborative and multi-disciplinary design-led social by connecting design students and faculty with industry needs.
Why do we need SDA-US? Why now?
“It is a pivotal moment in the field of socially responsible design. More than ever, design professionals are involved in projects that have a social impact. Student enrolment in educational programs or social innovation is growing exponentially.” Bill Moggridge, RSA Royal Designer for Industry, co-founder of IDEO and Director, Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum 2010-12.
How can I participate?
The awards are open to design students at US accredited schools. Faculty should oversee the students’ work, ideally by building the brief into the curriculum, by setting up workshops, and/or by individual mentoring. We'll announce the 2014 briefs and key dates in May 2013- so stay tuned:

Textiles in three colors (red, dark blue, white) woven by Paula del Cerro using Theo Moorman’s inlay technique to create geometric shapes with horizontal and vertical edges. The square napkins measure about sixteen inches on a side. The designs were generated with software written by Paul Hertz. Each of the designs represents a moment in a cyclic transform along a space-filling curve.
