Whether you’re in Art school and majoring in design or you’ve always felt a need to outlet your creativity despite other academic pursuits, an internship at Ziba Design might be just what you need to get the experience that you’ll need to land a full time job doing what you love.
Ziba’s vision of beauty is “a moment in time when social, human, economic and technical considerations are resolved in a single expression.” Ziba uses this definition to guide everything they do: Environmental Design, Product Design, Interaction Design, Communication Design, and Research & Planning. Each of these areas of Ziba’s business is guided by 5 factors: Ideas, Design, Experiences, Education, and Inspiration.
