AIGA Eye on Design
November 2018
Mariana Amatullo’s teaching and design practice sits at the intersection of design, design management, and social innovation—one of her primary concerns being the responsibility of (and potential for) designers to get involved in social and institutional change. After 16 years at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena, California, where she co-founded and led Designmatters, the school’s social innovation program. Last year, Amatullo joined Parsons The New School in New York City, where she teaches strategic design and management, and is co-chair of the school’s Management Initiative.
