Let's talk about rituals (and design)...

Rituals have the power to turn an ordinary experience into something meaningful.

They can be large and community based like a family reunion dinner. They can be small and personal like writing in your gratitude journal every morning.

But what are rituals exactly? And how are they different from habits and routines?

Adam Cochrane has been looking into the field of ritual design for a while.

In this episode we explore the power of rituals as well as the potential dark side. We also discuss how you can bring rituals into your own design practice.

Curious how to make the mundane meaningful again? Make sure you don't miss this conversation!
