Meet Alessandro Munge, the Founder of Studio Munge; a visionary, interior designer and magician when it comes to transforming spaces. The design from Toronto joins as Editor and host Hamish Kilburn’s special guest for episode 32 of DESIGN POD, sponsored by Geberit.

Munge, who has helped to redefine spaces around the world, using a human-centric approach to design, first met Kilburn when he was a guest on the Travel By Design podcast, by Marriott, where the two explored the fabrics and design story inside Muir Halifax, Autograph Collection.

On this episode, Kilburn's aim was to start where they left off from that meaningful episode to understand more about Munge’s approach to projects and how he has helped brands, through clever and social design, to amplify perhaps a different side of their personality. In addition to understand the architecture and design narrative of Muir, Kilburn speaks to Munge about sensitively designing EDITION’s first residences in Miami, how to effortlessly amplify a brand’s language through design and the challenges involved in designing Shangri-La’s tallest hotel within its portfolio, which will open soon in Nanning, China.
