“I think our strength is, we can rally an entire city to make something happen. It’s something that’s very organic to us.”

 
Since 2010, the Logan Square-founded collective Quite Strong has been a leading force for creativity, community and innovation in design. Together, Elaine Chernov, Jana Kinsman, Victoria Pater, Jennifer Sisson and Katherine Walker created a platform that showcases amazing design, promotes up-and-coming women designers, and provides leadership and entrepreneurial advice through workshops and conferences. They’re five of the 22 local design luminaries featured in This Is Chicago, a snapshot of the city’s creative community published by AIGA Chicago.
