The Fostering Arts and Design is a private, independent and not-for-profit association that has the objective of promoting design and architecture in the country's cultural and economic life. The FAD is articulated via five associations that represent the different disciplines of design:

ADI-FAD (industrial design)
ADG-FAD (graphic design and visual communication)
ARQUIN-FAD (architecture and interior design)
A-FAD (art and craftwork, contemporary jewellery)
MODA-FAD (fashion design)

Founded in the year 1903, the FAD has become the first centre of reference for design and architecture in Catalonia and Spain thanks to its commitment to the ongoing task of promoting creative culture through exhibitions, professional talks, prizes and events.

The FAD has a material centre, Materfad, that resulted from the increasing role played by materials in the development of our society. The purpose of Materfad is to provide a service to businesses, professionals, technology centres and universities. With this idea Materfad supplies the necessary information and advice on associated materials and technology in order to make innovative projects a reality.
