Well, similar to previous years we will continue with our lecture series inviting architects, artists and designers from the real world to inspire and interact with UL students. These lectures take place regularly throughout the semester and are open to all members. However SofA returns this year with a greater emphasis on design in the UL campus. We feel if the society is to promote design in UL
then how better than amongst this modern campus? We hope to hold design workshops throughout the year that will focus on elements throughout the campus so if you see us feel free to stop by! Our first workshop is to take place on campus during orientation week-keep an eye out for us in our eye-catching shirts! As well as the lectures returning so will events such as the foreign trip to a design fuelled city - previous destinations have been Budapest, Edinburgh and Barcelona, who knows where we’l be attracted to this year! But don’t worry there is also a social element to the society! There is the annual SofA Ball, a great event to integrate members, new and old alike. We also keep strong links with design societies from other universities, paying a visit to their events and vice versa. As a society we are dedicated to spreading the word about what's happening in the vast world of design right now. You can check us out at www.sofaul.ie or like us http://www.facebook.com/sofaul Membership is for everyone - not exclusively for architects, product designers, graphic designers or artists. We are happy to see anyone with a creative interest and enthusiasm!
