Episode description

🎧 Why is the human act of being idle, and taking some time off, seen as an expression of subversive counter culture?

Jaan and Jesper make a passionate case for the virtues of occasionally doing nothing in order to be a better designer.

You asked for it! In each episode we will highlight a reflection or advice from something we’ve recently encountered in our own work.

The coffee reviews are back!
But it doesn't start out particularly well when Jesper visits Ritual Coffee Roasters on Haight Street in San Francisco...


The ‘design, Design, DESIGN, design!’ podcast is where  we – designers Jesper Bylund and Jaan Orvet – poke, prod, analyse and share our opinions on design. The everyday, the mundane as well as the exceptional. We also explore how people affect, and are affected by, design.

If you like our podcast, consider supporting it. It's like buying us a coffee.
