The Design Society is an association of individuals across the world who deeply care about design: How we create new artefacts and systems, how we think about this creation process, and what is the impact of human-created artefacts on the world we live in and on ourselves. We express our caring for design through our efforts in research, education, practice, and outreach. 

Objectives
The objectives of the Society are to promote the development and propagation of design knowledge across all disciplines by: 
- creating and evolving a formal body of knowledge about design and designing;
- supporting and improving design research, education practice, and management;
- promoting co-operation among design researchers, practitioners, educators and managers;
- promoting design publications and their dissemination;
- organising international and national conferences, workshops, and student events;
- operating Special Interest Groups on different design topics and regional Chapters;
- co-operating with other bodies with similar and complementary design interests.
