29m
We talk about the power of design to drive conversation, but what about our language and expectations changes or modifies that conversation? In what ways does our use of language cause confusion, harm, or innovation? In this talk, we explore a brief history of design and then talk about the ways in which you can better employ language to shape the world around you and be a better designer.
This talk was filmed at Leading Design New York 2019. Find out more about the event details here - https://2019.leadingdesignconf.com/newyork
