Description
Today is a special day as Imagine a Place is launching its first children's book, "Design Your World." This heartwarming book shares the mission of IIDA's pipeline program of the same name (Design Your World), which aims to educate and inspire kids to see design as an accessible tool for both their life and career - and to make a positive impact on the world. A portion of the proceeds from each book directly supports IIDA's Design Your World program. On today's episode, we feature co-author Maria VanDeman, who is known for advocating for diversity and inclusion in the design profession, and the talented illustrator, Kenize Leon Perry, one of Miami's favorite artists and designers. Together, we discuss the inspiration, purpose, and goals of this book and the importance of sharing its story. We hope you enjoy today's episode and join us in supporting this important initiative and sharing the book with young readers in your life.

Angie Lee (FXCollaborative): Are we rewriting our life, work, and design value system? - Ep. 01: Well, this isn't how we imagined launching a podcast, but so much has changed in our world in just a few short weeks that we had to try to start making sense of it all. In this episode, Doug chats with Angie Lee, Partner and Design Director of Interiors for New York’s FXCollaborative. Doug and Angie discuss how this pandemic might force us to rethink our current value system around our life, work, and approach to interior design. by Imagine a Place
