Show Notes
In this episode we’re dropped into a conversation between two friends, Annette Harcus and Andrew Ashton. Annette is the founder, CEO and Creative Director of Harcus Design and Andrew is the CD of Ashton Design, previously with Edison Agency, Work-Art-Life and Studio Pip and Co. Their chat took us places you wouldn’t usually get in a design podcast. It’s a great conversation recorded at The Design Conference in 2023. We’d love to hear your thoughts on the episode and designer x designer format in general. You can leave a review or even send in a voice message, right here.

In the final episode of our Inclusive Design mini-series, we're joined by Anita Forte and Cristina Douglas, two creative directors who blend craft, research and strategic insight to create more inclusive experiences. Cristina has been making things professionally since 2008. She believes that creativity can’t be constrained by discipline. She writes, develops strategy, and makes brands meaningful. Anita brings deep expertise across product design, branding, and UX/UI in consumer goods and tech industries. Together, they take us inside their approach to inclusive design: testing early and often, understanding user needs and accessibility. We touch on their work at R/GA, developing generative AI for interface design, the ethics and how they see it fitting into and shifting the design process. A huge thank you to Anita and Cristina for such an open and insightful conversation 💬
