“If there was ever a time to recognize and support individuals and organizations using design for civic good, it’s now,” says Tanner Woodford. The Design Museum of Chicago founder and executive director ensures the institution’s mission: to inspire, educate and foster innovation through design. One way to do this is the Design Impact Grant program. Now in its second year and focusing on ways design can improve civic life, this collaborative initiative invites any and all to Design a Better Chicago. Woodford talks to Newcity about the design’s capacity to evolve, change and fundamentally improve the human condition, prompting you to rethink the pressing issues in the Chicago communities in time for this year’s nominations.
