DesignThinkers Podcast
From the Association of Registered Graphic Designers, this is the DesignThinkers podcast. In celebration of 25 years of the DesignThinkers Conference we dig into our archives and reconnect with past speakers about the talks and ideas that have shaped their careers—and the event. You’ll hear from powerhouses such as Paula Scher, Lauren Hom, Michael Bierut, Karin Fong and Sagi Haviv—just to name a few.

Forest Young
This week's guest is Forest Young. Forest just announced his new position at Fundamentalco, where he leads the design discipline for new economy clients as part of a senior business acceleration team, with singular focus on value creation. Prior to that, Forest has been the Global Head of Brand at Rivian and the Chief Creative Officer at Wolff Ollins. In this episode, we talk about the past, present and future of design. We cover his comfort level as a speaker, the responsibility of designers working in innovative tech spaces, and what transitioning between agency and in-house environments has taught him about making work.
