This week, Claire met up with Debbie Millman, the renowned designer and the host of Design Matters. Debbie hosts one of the world's longest-running podcasts and the OG design podcast, which has featured nearly 700 influential creatives and won multiple prestigious awards. She is the author of eight books and has also received the Audio Vanguard Award and a Cooper Hewitt National Design Award, cementing her impact in the design and creative industries.
In a first for Debbie, she invited Claire into her podcast studio, to record today’s ‘My Life in Design’ episode. Here’s your chance to hear Debbie’s side of the story and her life in design so far.
Debbie talks about her extensive career in design and branding – her time at Sterling Brands and the co-creation with Stephen Heller of the world’s first ever Masters in Branding program at the School of Visual Arts. She discusses personal projects and collabs including her work with Canva and her upcoming book ‘Love Letter to a Garden’ – a visual story of falling in love with gardening (published April 15). And she talks about the importance of business development ‘the pulse of an organisation’ in brand design agencies.
