Running a design studio requires talent and knowledge that may not be your specialty. These tools should help everyone run a professional design business.
AIGA Standard Contract
A special AIGA New York Chapter committee was created to research the issue of graphic design work and contracts. This resulted in the creation of the AIGA Standard Form of Agreement for Graphic Design Services. The contract is explained in detail in Professional Practices in Graphic Design, and is another reason every studio should have a copy.
Design & Business
Why hire a graphic designer? What is information design? What is the value of graphic design to business? These and other questions are answered in a unique area of the National AIGA website.
Design Business & Ethics
AIGA has released a series outlining the critical ethical and professional issues encountered by designers and their clients. These articles examine key concerns designers face in maintaining a successful practice and speak directly to the protection of individual rights.
Design Census
AIGA members are surveyed annually and the results are compiled in this document. Information is organized by geographic region, design position, years of experience and other categories.
