IIDA Oregon Chapter

We're excited to share that our November Social will take place at AfroVillage PDX! AfroVillage PDX is a movement rooted in the vision of Portland community member and activist LaQuida Landford. The movement focuses on addressing the needs of our most vulnerable population — unhoused individuals — with a focus on racial disparities and inequalities. At this event we'll get the opportunity to hear from founder Laquida Landford about the organization's mission, what's next, and how we as a design community can come together to support them in their future efforts. There will also be time to connect with your fellow peers and enjoy some light bites and drinks! Please join us as we Give Back to our community this Holiday season.

Washington State School for the Blind's Life Skills Training Center has been nominated for the IIDA Oregon Chapter 2024 Design Excellence Awards People's Choice Awards! The design of the building focuses on how spaces feel, smell, and sound rather than solely relying on visual appeal. To promote communal interaction between residents and enhance social skills, the shared living area provides soft furnishings; the dining room features a tactile art gallery wall with pieces created by blind and low vision artists; and spaces are provided for those who want to play instruments, make art, or exercise together. We're honored to be nominated for this category and would love your support in casting a vote by Friday, October 18th!
