I loved listening to Dianne and Doug interact. I think Furgatory is one of the best words ever created! We need to put that on a t-shirt 🔥 I look forward to hearing LOTS more conversations about decommissioning furniture. It’s a massive global issue and is going to take everyone working together to try and solve the problem. Thank you for talking about designing your life. It’s something I am also super passionate about. Design your life; you only have one. Thanks for what you do, Doug, and your positive influence on the world!

Dianne Kimiko Murata of Kimiko Designs is spot on with the complexities to a job going all the way from when we are brought on to a project to it being installed right when the puzzle is complete. Furniture doesn’t have to be a four letter word and Dianne gives great insight into this all the way from programming thru to post documents. I love the new word made up about the gap that sometimes happens between the design firm and the dealer, Furgatory!!! She touches very well on sustainability and re-using or re-purposing product so it doesn’t go into a landfill. Well done!!
