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.
