Special guest Christian Giordano of Mancini Duffy joins the podcast to talk about how he came to the 100-year-old firm with a vision to modernize Mancini Duffy, how he ultimately changed the firm’s approach to emphasize the use of technology to transform the way designers across disciplines work, why he launched a research & development incubator—dubbed the Design Lab—to bring together designers, technologists, and clients to leverage various technologies to support their practice and to break barriers he saw that were limiting their design capabilities, and more.
