  • The User Brings the Confetti: Rob Giampietro on Scaling a Human-Centered Brand
    2025/08/05

    Rob Giampietro, Head of Creative at Notion and former Design Director at MoMA, returns to the show to unpack the story behind Notion Faces, the popular tool that allows users to create their own illustrated avatar.

    Rob details the project's journey from a beloved internal tradition to a major public launch, including the pivotal decision to scale with human illustrators instead of AI to maintain the brand's unique, handcrafted quality.

  • True is Better Than New: David Reinfurt on Evolving Graphic Design Education
    2025/07/01

    In this episode, designer, educator, and author David Reinfurt returns to the show to discuss his latest book, A *Co-* Program for Graphic Design.

    In conversation, Liam and David cover the power of hands-on learning, the importance of going against expectations as a designer, and the positionality of design—its closeness to everyday life, how it affects those that encounter it, and how it’s taught—and how individual perspective is the real driver of design as a practice.
