Interior Design & Creative Direction with Fiona Kennedy

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

lundi 13 mars 2023 • Durée 39:35

Today I’m joined by Fiona Kennedy. Fiona’s been working in design for over 20 years and is currently a leader in design at Education First (EF). EF operates schools in over 100 countries and has over 50,000 employees. I’m excited to hear about what role design plays in such a huge organisation and of course I want to know how Fiona got design in the first place.

I’m Kieron Bakewell, the host and founder of Work In Design. I’ve worked as a designer since 2003. In 2005 I co-founded the furniture company naughtone. My skills and passions are predominantly in design, although I have picked up business skills along the way!

During 2020 in my role as design director at naughtone, I was prompted to look at the diversity within the design department at naughtone. Ultimately it was not a diverse group. I did not consider this intentional, rather a more accurate representation of those actually applying for roles in design. This got me thinking more broadly about how anyone finds their way into design careers?

Working in design has been immensely rewarding for me on so many levels. The people, travel, challenges and feeling like you can make a change and contribute in a meaningful way.

If I can, I’d now like to help others find their way into and enjoy this fantastic vocation. Hopefully they’ll help solve tomorrow’s problems along the way.

Stefan has worked as a designer for over 20 years, beginning with his own furniture business and then working as a designer for a number of other business before making his way to Fosters.
I consider Stefan to be a true designer who has followed his passion to organisations where he can focus solely on design. I’m excited to find out how Stefan has navigated his career and of course how he got started.

Today I’m lucky to be joined by not only a designer but a degree and masters level educator. This is an important episode as we’ll get some perspective from working as a designer and also some insight into design education after school.

Introducing: Work In Design

jeudi 9 mars 2023 • Durée 00:58

Good design has the power to improve the world and our experience of it. Bad design can add to the world’s growing problems.
We must inspire and equip the next generation of designers, engineers, and problem solvers to tackle issues relative to their lifetime and beyond.
Design is perhaps one of the more niche careers that is difficult to gain insight into during early education. Individuals with skills and passion for creativity and problem solving may not find their way to specialising in design.

Design is also a very broad term. What does it mean and what types of careers are available within the vocation?

Design has an impact on everyone. Designers should more proportionally reflect the demographic of the World they influence. Readily available insights into design careers paths may hopefully inspire an increasingly diverse workforce within the design sector.
