Local Design, Just in time for the holidays
Built is an annual pop-up shop organized and managed by the Student Design Association. This temporary store offers a platform for up-and-coming designers to showcase and sell their creations in a commercial environment. It’s an excellent opportunity for Edmonton residents to buy locally-made products while supporting emerging talent.
The selection of items available at Built are curated by a jury of design professionals and are held to professional standards. Students are encouraged to collaborate with local businesses in the production of their products.
Celebrating 9 years of Excellent design
Join us on opening night to celebrate the 9th annual edition of Built
We’re Happy to be Here!
The Student Design Association is a student-run organization representing current students and alumni of the University of Alberta who have taken design courses during their degree. Serving as a bridge between students and our local design community, we actively work to stimulate community involvement, create partnerships with other organizations, and organize events for students and staff. Our primary goal is to support design students in creating long term foundations for success by providing support and facilitating opportunities to foster connections throughout the year.
Our two primary events, Built and our annual Grad Show, function as platforms to showcase the talent and innovation within our student design community.
