A practical, values-driven guide to inclusive design.
How can designers meaningfully contribute to a more just and equitable world? Guiding Principles for Inclusive Design Values answers this question with clarity, urgency, and actionable guidance. Structured around the six official commitments of the AIGA Design Educators Community Value Design Education Pledge, this book offers designers and educators a thoughtful framework for integrating inclusion, equity, and justice into every stage of their creative process.
Each chapter centers on one of the six core values—anti-racism, historical awareness, knowledge-sharing, impact, community, and wellbeing—and features contributors from across the design world. These diverse voices share tools, real-world case studies, and provocative prompts that invite reflection and inspire action. This book is a hands-on resource for individual creatives, design educators, and teams who want to align their design practice with their values.
Inside, readers will find:
Six chapters based on AIGA’s official values commitments, each offering actionable insights
Contributions from respected designers and educators, each bringing a unique perspective and experience
Case studies and real-world applications that show inclusive design in action
Guidance for teams and studios looking to integrate values into hiring, collaboration, and client work
A practical framework for inclusive creativity, rooted in the real challenges of contemporary design
Perfect for designers at any career stage, Inclusive Design Values is a call to rethink how and why we create. It’s a must-have for anyone committed to using design as a force for change.
Anne H. Berry is a writer, designer, and the director of the School of Design at the University of Illinois Chicago.

She has also partnered with faculty across disciplines on grant-funded Internet of Things Collaborative projects, including the development of user experience design + augmented reality curriculum emphasizing communities and local history. She is a managing editor of one of Fast Company’s “Best Design Books of 2022,” The Black Experience in Design: Identity, Expression, and Reflection, an award-winning anthology spotlighting teaching practices, research, stories, and conversations from a Black/African diasporic lens. Berry served as a board member for the Cleveland chapter of AIGA as Student Development Chair, Diversity & Inclusion Task Force Co-Chair, and President. Meaghan A.

Current collaborative research projects focus on prioritizing the student experience and strengthening the values of design education.
