How can curiosity change the way you approach a challenge?
In this special episode of How We Future, Lisa Kay Solomon travels to the Eames Institute of Infinite Curiosity in Richmond, California, for a conversation with Llisa Demetrios, Chief Curator of the Institute and granddaughter of legendary designers Ray and Charles Eames.
Surrounded by the Eames collection itself, Lisa and Llisa explore the stories, philosophies, and design principles that shaped Ray and Charles' extraordinary work. From iconic furniture to exhibitions, films, architecture, toys, and educational experiences, the Eames believed that design is about solving problems with empathy, curiosity, and care.
Together, they discuss why prototyping beats perfection, why asking better questions matters more than having quick answers, and how designing for everyone who touches a product—not just the end user—can transform the way we solve problems.
In this conversation, you'll hear about:
- How curiosity, play, and experimentation fueled decades of innovation.
- The importance of learning through failure.
- Why great design considers every person involved
- The story behind the famous Eames chairs
Whether you're a designer, educator, leader, parent, or simply someone trying to navigate an increasingly complex world, this conversation is a reminder that curiosity is a skill we can all practice.
If this conversation resonated with you, we'd love to hear from you.
What's one problem in your own life or work that could benefit from a little more curiosity?
