This is such a great show - I love how it delves deep into people’s journey into design and allows the time to explore what makes this industry so special. It’s a must for everyone interested in design, but should also be prescribed for those interested in business and social change.

Really look forward to this each week. A diverse range of people working in the design industry with inspirational stories to tell and great advice - whether you’re starting out in design, following a career in it already or just have a passion for all things creative.
