Compostmodern 08 January 19, 2008

AIGA San Francisco and the AIGA Center for Sustainable Design are happy to present the third bi-annual Compostmodern on January 19th in San Francisco. This interdisciplinary design conference is dedicated to finding creative solutions, best practice and inspirational examples – and demonstrating how they influence the broader design community.

Speaker Highlights

Former Sierra Club president and environmental enfant terrible Adam Werbach will describe the challenges inherent in moving Wal-Mart into the 21st century while simultaneously fending off charges of "selling out" by his former colleagues.

Wine industry scion Jean-Charles Boisset will show how biodynamic farming practice and non-traditional product packaging are working in tandem to transform the wine industry.

Representatives from the AIGA Center for Sustainable Design will lead a whiteboard session plotting the course for sustainability within the design profession.

Other speakers include representatives from IDEO, VSA Partners and the AIA San Francisco Chapter.

So come spend a day in downtown San Francisco and get your green on.
