DesignHouse

DesignHouse Not-for-profit organization with the mission to help revitalize local manufacture through design. WHY LOCAL MANUFACTURING?

DESIGNHOUSE IS A NONPROFIT THAT UTILIZES THE POWER OF DESIGN TO MAXIMIZE LOCAL MANUFACTURING POTENTIAL. Just as the local food movement has inspired chefs, instead of starting with a product design and then searching for a manufacturer, DesignHouse reverses the process. We educate designers, manufacturers, and the next generation to use excess capacity and design thinking to bring innovation to th

e factory floor through our Design Jams, Design for Local Process and Design & Manufacturing Residency programs. This revitalization not only contributes to needed jobs in local communities, but creates environmentally sustainable supply chains and strengthens communities by keeping the economy local. Our programs help utilize manufacturing capabilities through innovative ideas, inspire designers to design for local manufacturing and link the next generation to skilled manufacturing careers.
