The Story

“We were looking for a more meaningful gift, something that would always remind them of their alma mater and convey a sense of continuity.”

Founded in Milan in 1982, Domus Academy combines an international perspective with a unique ‘learning by designing’ approach. Every year, during Milan Design Week, Domus Academy organizes an important event, the Alumni Reunion, which brings together professionals from all over the world who majored at this prestigious design school.

Last year, Domus Academy was included for the first time in the UI GreenMetric 2022, which ranks the world’s most sustainable universities. To recognize this important achievement, they chose SproutWorld pencils for their original, sustainable, and circular design.
We were looking for a more meaningful gift, something that would always remind them of their alma mater and convey a sense of continuity: Think Further, Design Beyond, but never forget Domus Academy. Since many of our students are international, we also wanted a gift that would be convenient and easy to carry with them while traveling.
