we decided to view the role of women in design from a variety of angles. we did new research, interviewed designers, and then structured the information we’d gathered into designing women. i believe information based on facts, statistics, and real input from design theorists and practitioners is the best basis for further discussion and positive change. —diana kasay, readymag co-founder and ceo

inducing change

As a sustainable business, Readymag strives to promote positive social change. In a bid to challenge the gender imbalance in design and support a productive public discussion, in 2019 the Readymag team rolled out Designing Women—an international project highlighting women’s impact on the industry. The project explores the status of women in design, telling the stories of trail-blazing female designers and showcasing their key works. In addition, it offers a bunch of extra resources for self-study.
