Curator Cynthia Smith spent two years conducting field work to find the designs that will be included in the show.
"I traveled, for two three weeks at a time, around the US trying to meet designers and community members, and a whole range of people, to see what was going on and who was working on these issues," she says. Smith chose 60 projects to feature, each of which aim to solve a local problem or address a challenge facing a particular community.
