Established in 1951, the Slovene Designers Society – Društvo oblikovalcev Slovenije (DOS) – is the only professional association in Slovenia to unite designers from a wide range of creative and design–related spheres. The society comprises the following sections: visual communication design, industrial design, unique design, photography, scenography, and costume design. The address book of DOS members, accompanied by a gallery of selected works, is available online.


DOS has been a member of the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design (ICSID) since 1961. In 1963 it was one of the co-organisers for the founding congress of the International Council of Graphic Design Associations (ICOGRADA) in Bled, Slovenia. The society was one of initiators of the Architecture Museum of Ljubljana and the Biennial of Industrial Design (BIO).

Mission

The core objectives of the Slovene Designers Society are to raise the professional criteria, to provide a platform for evaluation of design work, and to be a partner in the professional dialogue with the country. The society furthermore organises competitions, creative workshops, panel discussions, retrospective exhibitions, and other public presentations of its members. Numerous exhibitions have contributed to the promotion of Slovene design at home and abroad.

Exhibitions

Annual exhibitions of DOS members are arranged regularly to showcase their work, and to inform the interested public about Slovene design. To mark the title of the World Book Capital Ljubljana 2010 the Slovene Designers Society organised a conceptual exhibition of selected works, named Oblikobranje (Form–reading).
