PARKING UPDATE:

IMPORTANT PARKING DETAILS!

It will be Alumni Homecoming at Stanford, so public transportation is especially encouraged. If you’re driving, the closest parking is the Tressider lot (3 min walk), followed by Roble Field garage (10 min walk) or Manzanita garage (14 min walk). You can park using the ParkMobile app or service at $4.46/hour.

Alternatively free parking is available (until full) at the alumni homecoming designated lots at Lasuen Grove or Eucalyptus Grove. These are farther away (19 min walk), but there is a Green shuttle line from Lasuen Street that goes to Ford Center, and from there you can walk to the Bookstore (11 min walk).

ABOUT THE EVENT:

Join us at Stanford d.school’s very first Design Literary Festival! We’ll meet at the Stanford Bookstore outdoor pavilion (in front of the bookstore).

What we have in store for you:

– Immersive showcase of recent publications and design products from around the world

– Interactive activities inspired by book content with authors and design experts from the Stanford d.school, where you can get your hands dirty and make things

– A chance to explore cool prints, games, and all things design

Held during the university’s annual alumni homecoming (and open to all!), this event marks an exciting new initiative by the world renowned Stanford d.school. As the field of design literature is growing and evolving, the d.school has begun to play a deliberate role as mindful stewards and purveyors of printed matter related to design. While authors and titles from the recent d.school design guide book series will be featured, the festival will include design materials from far beyond the institution as well. 

We look forward to a day full of design, books, and vibrant conversations with you!

Register today and we’ll gift you a print when you show your confirmation email at the Literary Festival.
