Design studio DashDigital has launched a podcast series to tell the stories of notable designers. The idea of design, in general, is a very visual one. So, the concept of a design podcast might sound like a contradiction in terms but in fact, there’s a lot one can learn and enjoy about the visual arts via spoken word – particularly from those in the creative industry.
‘When we set out to create this series, we wanted to uncover unique paths and unravel exclusive behind the scenes perspectives of key people in the design world, in order to discover their transformative journeys, discover lessons and challenges and understand the triumphs that have defined their experiences,’ explained Rogan Jansen, co-founder and creative director at DashDigital.
One of the episodes is centred around an interview with Julia Descole and Miranda Lopez Durnbeck, the founders of By Beyond, a female-led creative studio in Argentina. This creative duo is known for their ability to translate the language of branding through a lens of simplicity and artful design.
‘For those looking to one day own their own business or more specifically a design studio, this is a must listen,’ said Jansen. ‘Throughout this interview, we openly discuss the challenges and successes of running a design studio, which in effect helped us to unveil the determination and commitment that ultimately drives this journey.’
Some of the other interviewees have included Isabel Moranta, an award-winning Creative and Associate Design Director at Media.Monks in Montreal, Canada; the visionary founder of London’s Accept & Proceed, David Johnston; and Joe Diver, the London based graphic designer specialising in brand identity, web design and creative direction.
‘From Moranta’s unique perspective on the creative landscape to Johnston’s dedication to forging the path for design’s tomorrow and Diver’s story of having learnt through doing, the teachings and truths shared in these interviews are not only inspiring but relatable too. It’s in these recorded voices that design becomes more human.’ Listen to the podcast here.
