Welcome to your ct|idsa website, a conduit to the Constitution State's design community. Here you can connect with fellow Connecticut designers, peruse articles on what's going on design-wise in our state, check up on who is where, see what's coming up on our ct|idsa events calendar, or simply surf to local firms, schools and vendors on our links page.

We hope you'll check back for our monthly updates and use this site as your site. Please feel free to contact us with contributions and ideas as we grow our design community together. Be well, and go out there and design great things.

As Director of Design at the The world search, I am pleased to report that ct|idsa students Lachezar Tsvetanov and Anna Mastriano (IDSA) represented our Chapter very well in Monterey. Lachezar's first place award and Anna's second place award out-paced the other winners by a wide margin.

Most people will never own a Van Gogh. They probably won't look at a Monet daily. They might not purchase a Brancusi sculpture for the living room, or live in a Frank Lloyd Wright home. On the other hand, they most likely will wake up to look at their alarm clock each morning, drive their car to and from work, and look at their watch countless times. It is easy to underestimate the impact of interacting with these objects.
