Ep.1 The fundamentals of design have changed. Technology has transformed the creative process, and environmental destruction has changed the role of designers. When Ross Lovegrove started out, designers worked mainly in analogue. Now, modernity has ushered in fresh techniques, opportunities and limitations. What does this mean for designers today?

In this debut episode, Ross and Ila explore how design has transformed in the 21st century, how to adopt a contemporary strategy and how to stay relevant as a creative. Ross discusses mainstream design culture and how to harness nature and technology within your creative practice.

• Konstantin Grcic, German industrial designer
