Dear Designer,

As architects and designers we are in a privileged position to be designing spaces and buildings that we will often never occupy. It then becomes so important that we ask the people we are designing for “What do you need? What do you want?”.

The goal of Dear Designer is to foster a culture of conversation and humility. It’s about highlighting the importance of collaboration in our profession, and giving a platform to those who rarely have the opportunity to be heard.

The podcast will contain interviews with individuals with specific needs and wants from the city- such as a commuter cyclist, a parent with small children, or a person with anxiety- and ask them what they would put in their letter to designers and architects.

First few episodes are out now!
