By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, January 27, 2008

Chicago — Design Summit 2008: A Sustainable Outlook is the title of the fourth annual conference and exposition of the American Society of Interior Designers — Illinois Chapter, a one-day event set for Feb. 28.

It will be held at from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the eighth floor of The Merchandise Mart Design Center here.

"Design Summit is a local forum for knowledge-sharing among industry peers, practical learning for students of interior design and a great place to showcase great commercial and residential interior products and services from Illinois-based Industry Partners — all in a fun atmosphere," said James Landa, ASID chapter president. "Designers can fulfill CEU-needed credits, too, while staying current on trends and important movements, such as green design."

The event is open to designers, students and vendors in the interior design industry.

This year's focus is sustainable design, with topics including an introduction to green design, legislation affecting the profession, marketing and advertising, and a panel discussion on finding your first job in interior design.

The Design Summit cost is $50 for ASID and International Interior Design Assn. members; $75 for non-members; and $25 students with identification. The cost includes seminars, lunch and the Expo. There is no charge to visit the Expo only.

More information is available online at www.asidillinois.com, or by calling the chapter headquarters at (312) 467-5080.
