Due to lack of continued funding, InformeDesign has been placed in idle mode. You will still have access to all of the Research Summaries, Implications, and continuing/professional education courses; however, no new information will be added. If you have any questions or comments please direct them to informedesign@umn.edu.

InformeDesign has been created and sponsored to bring research and practice aspects of the design professions together. The designers of the built environment face a multitude of complex challenges: resource, social, environmental, behavioral, and design in nature. InformeDesign will bring research from a vast array of reputable research sources to the design community that address those challenges.

If you are wondering why it is important to consider applying research to your design decisions, check out our views on the benefits of applying research to practice and how that has influenced the history and development of InformeDesign. In addition, perhaps you will find it helpful to get a better understanding of the strengths of the collaboration between ASID and the University of Minnesota and the operation of InformeDesign.
