The Design Show 2026 was on view June 10–26 at the Jacob Lawrence Gallery, located in the Art Building of the University of Washington Seattle campus. 

The annual exhibition features the culminating work of graduating seniors across three design majors: Industrial Design (ID), Interaction Design (IxD), and Visual Communication Design (VCD). Throughout their programs, these students develop their skills through rigorous coursework, collaborative projects, and creative experimentation. The Design Show showcases their strongest work from their time in the program—a mix of capstone projects, team collaborations, and site-specific interventions.

In tandem with the exhibition, the graduating cohort creates a custom portfolio website featuring their projects and design practices. The 2026 website can be viewed at uwdesignshow.com.
