Got a fire in your belly about green design? A bee in your bonnet? Well you should get to know Firebelly Design, a super-talented design firm dedicated to sustainable design. According to their web site, Firebelly "believes in honest storytelling and genuine experiences—the sincere things that simply can’t be faked or forced." Don't miss this special opportunity to learn how they do it—and how they sell the idea to clients to increase the impact of their work. http://firebellydesign.com/

This event is associated with The AIGA Center for Sustainable Design, which is dedicated to providing designers with a wide range of information regarding sustainable business practice. http://sustainability.aiga.org/

This event will take place, aptly, at the Urban Ecology Center of Milwaukee. AIGA is grateful to the Center for offering to be an in-kind sponsor, and have invited them to share a brief presentation for our attendees on their mission, as well as the story behind their building's sustainable design.
