In this episode, we explore how design can shape a better future, examining its role in addressing complex challenges, embracing constraints, and navigating the opportunities and perils of runaway design in an ever-changing world.

About the Episode:
In this episode, we sit down with Scott Doorley, Creative Director at Stanford d.school and co-author of Assembling Tomorrow, to discuss the transformative power of design. We unpack how design goes beyond aesthetics to become a tool for shaping the future of technology, society, and innovation. Scott introduces concepts like "runaway design" and "anticipating breakage," offering practical advice for building resilient systems in an unpredictable world. We also explore speculative fiction as a technique for critical reflection and problem-solving, along with actionable strategies for embracing constraints to fuel creativity. From climate change to generative AI, this episode sheds light on how thoughtful design can help us navigate the challenges of today while building a thriving tomorrow.
