AIGA Wisconsin is thrilled to present Debbie Millman, the author, savvy and opinionated host of Internet talk show "Design Matters," and partner at Sterling Brands, as our keynote speaker at AIGA Wisconsin's First Annual Member Celebration. Millman's provocative musings on design's role within larger business and social contexts make her one of the preëminent voices in the design world today. She is also about to become our very own leader, as the 2010 president-elect of AIGA national.
On this night, Debbie Millman speaks about Why We Brand, Why We Buy, a deep dive into the history of why we brand and why we buy things. It’s a historical look at the influence branding has on our every day lives - from branding ourselves and the world around us to the role branding plays in the products we buy and the way we live our lives.
