DesignX

Summer is for discovery and hands-on experiences. Creating something useful - like these bookends - is not only fulfilling, but a daily reminder of all you can accomplish!

“It wouldn’t be possible without my teachers.”

A powerful reminder that creativity may begin with an idea, but it grows through encouragement, guidance, and people who believe in us along the way. Proud of this young designer and the dress she brought to life with the help of her teacher at DesignX.

The dress is beautiful, but the confidence, perseverance, and gratitude developed along the way may be the most meaningful outcome of all.

Encouraging sustainability through design.

What can you do this summer to encourage sustainability?

Thank you to our partners and for helping us be the drivers of change — collecting over 100 lbs of denim from the local community to be used in our summer design studios. And to all the families who donated the denim. It take a village.

With summer quickly approaching, it’s time to think what you’re going to do with all of that free time.

At DesignX, we are staying off our phones and getting our hands dirty with experiences that will not only last a lifetime, but create memories like no other!
