All-Russian Designer Day

Designer's Day is a very young Russian holiday, but already recognized in relevant circles And this is well deserved, because design is an activity that is extremely significant for many industries: the construction of communication systems (ventilation, gas pipelines, electrical networks, etc), the construction of architectural structures, city construction, interior and landscape design Specialists who engage in design are called designers This is a very ancient profession, because people have been engaged in construction from time immemorial The greatest representative of the profession is Leonardo da Vinci, scientist and engineer In Russia, the formation of the profession began from the time of Peter I No, before him they also built and designed, but only Peter Alekseevich came up with the idea of ​​​​inviting foreign engineers to train and improve the skills of domestic specialists The work of designers is not considered grueling, but this makes it no less selfless Design specialists must constantly study and then introduce new technologies and materials, and seek opportunities for their use All this requires enormous concentration and mental effort The smallest mistake in a project can be costly How did the professional holiday of designers come about? The work of designers is inextricably linked with construction, but the builders already had a professional holiday, and the designers were deprived of such an honor In 2005, the Rospipe group of companies decided to protect the interests of undeservedly forgotten specialists and organized a gala celebration in St Petersburg, which was attended by at least 150 people The next year, two more cities joined the celebration - Moscow and Novosibirsk, and the number of people increased to six hundred 2007 again expanded the geography of the holiday and increased the number of those celebrating to two thousand The holiday is gaining momentum every year and, according to forecasts, may soon become international The organizers consider their main goals to be increasing the importance of the profession in society and recognizing the holiday as official In the meantime, its celebration is limited only to corporate events with ceremonial speeches, incentives for the best employees, concert programs, exhibitions and buffets All specialists in one way or another related to design, including students and teaching staff of specialized educational institutions, accept congratulations on November 16
