The Banner Blog

From October 7 — 20, Denver will host an Urban Forest Project. Banner Creations, Inc. is donating all 48 banners for this event.

The Urban Forest Project is a unique design exhibition featuring the work of over 40 designers and students from all over Colorado. Planned to coincide with the AIGA National Design Conference, it will showcase the talent and enthusiasm Colorado has for design and put it on display for the 3,000+ attendees of the conference. At the same time, it will shine a light on sustainable design issues as well as raise money for Colorado design education initiatives.

Banner Creations has donated the 48 banners for this project which will utilize Ecophab™. Ecophab™ is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles. After the banners have hung they will be made into tote bags — similar to The Green Bag — and sold on the UFP web site as a fundraiser for Colorado design education initiatives. By using recycled fabric and up-cycling the banners into bags, the project will have a very minimal environmental footprint.
