Design Census 2019

Created by Google and AIGA, the Design Census is an open and collaborative resource for understanding the complex economic, social, and cultural factors shaping the design practice today in the United States.

The Census aims to uncover insights through data, leading to deeper and more informed conversations about where the design industry is now and where it's headed.

Are you a design professional working in the U.S.? We want to hear from you. Help us paint a clearer picture of your role in the design industry.

The survey is completely anonymous. User IDs from AIGA, Google, and Twitter are all one-way encrypted. No other user information is stored.

All the information we collect will be anonymized and made publicly available. We encourage everyone to explore the data and react to it, whether it's a tweet, a poster, a microsite, or an essay. We'll produce and share an official report once the data has been gathered and analyzed.

In order to collect unbiased data, we need to ensure people take the census only once. Logging in with a Google, Twitter, or AIGA account allows us to authenticate users easily.
