Introducing Make. ChangeDesign Indaba's 2015 campaign celebrates the use of creativity to improve our lives and the lives of those around us. Design infiltrates every aspect of our lives: it is in everything we interact with, all that we see and almost everything we touch. From the chair you are sitting on to the screen on which you are reading this to that dinner you had at a restaurant that made you experience flavour in a new way, design exists to enhance our experiences and streamline our lives. Design Indaba's 2015 creative campaign seeks to showcase the stories of people who actively Make. Change. - not by creating elitist designs for the 1%, but those who find creative solutions to everyday problems for the 99%. They do this to better a life, beautify a street, uplift a community or just make someone smile. The aim is to tell the stories that matter: the ones that will brighten your day or inspire you to go out and do something worthwhile. So, share your story! Or if you don't have one yet, go find something that needs fixing, bettering or beautifying, come up with a creative way to do it, document your #makechange moment and share it with us on the Design Indaba Facebook page. You are not crazy for thinking you can change the world. You are crazy if you don't try. Some of the Make. Change. projects you can see at Design Indaba 2015:
