Transatlantic Design

We have just come back from 5 weeks of interviews in New York. We visited people in their studios, the universities they taught at and some even invited us to their own homes. Chris Rose gave us a wonderful tour around RISD at Rhode Island and Michael Beiruit invited us to a talk that he was giving at Pentagram. We will be interviewing in London soon.

News — We are lucky enough to have been invited by Ian Wright to speak at his forthcoming talk for D&AD's Xchange lecture series.
Big thanks to Ian, look out for our progress...
Xchange is..."...A unique opportunity to meet and mix with some of the world’s leading practitioners with two days of talks, case study presentations and lively debate. An event presenting a broad range of respected creative views, insights and approaches, with the goal of creating a blend of exciting and diverse ideas as inspiration for the forthcoming new academic year."

Transatlantic Design is a comparison between British and American design education. This is a student based investigation fueled by our own personal interests and experiences.

Through interviews and discussions with students, educators, designers and creative practitioners we aim to explore and question the current systems of design education. Our collated conversations about design education will be presented in a book.
