What is the Design Expo 

The West Texas Design Expo has a 30-year legacy at Texas Tech University. Each October, representatives bring the newest products and materials to design professionals and students. This event connects the designers and student with the best in the contract furnishings industry. Our Design Expo allows exhibitors to introduce their products to future designers, while educating them in the latest product design.

What do I wear? 

Business Attire is required. As an attendee you will be interacting with design professionals and learning about their products. It also allows exhibitors to introduce their products to future designers while educating them in the latest product design. The Design Expo connects you to design professionals, and other interior design students. ​This is a great opportunity for you to introduce yourself to the design world and dressing you best in business attire is a great way to look your best. 

What do I do at the Expo?

Talk to the vendors! The vendors want to talk to and share their products with you. Each company offers great resources to be able to use in your future projects. Many of the Interior Design graduates now work for the companies that participate in Expo, therefore all the venders are great connections for your future. On that note, you are more than welcome to bring your business card, resume, or your
portfolio. 


Vendors will be supplying raffle items and will be raffled off during the Design Expo. The raffle items in the past have included side tables, chairs, fabulous bags, AirPods, Giftcards and other great products. Therefore make sure to stay the whole time and bring cash to see what you can win! 
​
Each year, an award for innovation in product design will be given to the company with the best product, design, or technology.  This will be voted on by the attendees and announced at the end of the Design Expo.  The winner will receive a plaque for display and a $100 Visa gift card. Therefor as an attendee you will be able to vote on the best table at expo. 

​

Why should I go?

Expo is a great learning experience, you interact with the design world ahead of you and it is a full day of opportunities and fun. As an attendee you are able to meet multiple venders and professionals in the design field. 

We had a great turn out last year and we expect to keep the tradition going this year and the years to come. We hope to see everyone there!!
