Carissa Carter & Scott Doorley: The Reflex Blue Show #267

The Reflex Blue Show : A Graphic Design Podcast

Carissa Carter and Scott Doorley of the Stanford d.school were at the 2024 HOW Design Live Conference in Denver, Colorado to talk about their new book – Assembling Tomorrow: A Guide to Designing a Thriving Future. As the most recent book from the d.school, this one (which I finished reading last weekend), is what I would expect from two people from Stanford – it’s smart, thought-provoking, and takes a unique approach I have not seen in a design book before. Besides being a beautiful design, it mixes a lot of non-fiction with what they call ’20 speculative non-fiction stories’ in-between (you know, stories from up to 90 years in the future presented as real). I will say I have already found myself talking to multiple people about some of the topics I read in the book – I highly recommend it.

We talk about the book; The Shop at Matter bookstore; the Stanford d.school; the nature of design work as well as the unintended consequences; and more.

Enjoy.
