This week's episode becomes theoretical as we discuss how designing for the digital world is interconnected with how we design for the physical world, and vice versa. We sit down with Senior Graphic Designer Brian Newman and Designer William Ellsworth to explore how these two worlds are merging but also how they will always remain distinct, despite rapidly changing technology.     Let's stay in touch:  Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @retaildesignc Head on over to our website http://rdcollaborative.com

Building 3D, physical models are not a new concept or way of designing, but with most design work now being done completely digitally, it can be easy to overlook or skip out on.    Senior Designer Napoleon Meraña has over 25 years of experience designing around the U.S. and Europe, and physical modeling has remained a core component of his design process, even as he began his designs on computers instead of hand-drawn sketches. He has brought a unique perspective on how to approach designing that has not been common at RDC for the last few years.    Let's stay in touch:  Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @retaildesignc Head on over to our website http://rdcollaborative.com

When people hear of "interior design," what comes to mind is HGTV and primarily women wanting to decorate their homes. Senior Designer Katy Wise and Senior Design Manager Itzel Meynard can tell you that interior design is so much more than picking out furniture and swatches.    On this week's episode, we talk about how Interior Design complements and should be considered just as important as exterior Architecture, and how the merging of the two has created "Interior Architecture." There are some misconceptions about Interior Design that we debunk, as well as some talk about what it is like as a woman in the Architecture industry as a whole.    Let's stay in touch:  Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @retaildesignc Head on over to our website http://rdcollaborative.com

Millennials have spurred a wave of self-care, and it is seeping into how we design spaces for them to take care of themselves, namely the hospitality industry.      This week, we sit down with Senior Interior Design Manager Alex Kuby to discuss how the prioritization of self-care with indulgence and luxury has pervaded how we design hospitality spaces. Even the rise of social media has affected the kinds of experiences and materials we choose and include in our designs.    Let's stay in touch:  Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @retaildesignc Head on over to our website http://rdcollaborative.com
