A lot of us also felt we needed to be as accessible as possible and not just overwhelm people with graphs and diagrams and data, which puts pressure on us to develop PowerPoints and visuals. I thought that it was going to be easier to make a podcast, so I reached out to Monica Kumar. We started brainstorming and we came up with this idea. Then we reached out to Anna Wissler, who had just been investigating the feasibility of doing a Perkins&amp;Will podcast and had already reached out to Lauren Neefe, and the little scrappy quartet was formed.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Eunice Wong: I think already by 2020, Erika and I had formed this virtual bond in the confines of our own separate living rooms, where we were already spending hours, sometimes with a cocktail, nerding out endlessly. And we did not know where to stop. The show feels like an extension of our friendship and our nerdiness, a safe space where we can talk about our frustrations with design practices and our aspirations for what design can do. When I rotated in as co-host, it felt natural. We were speaking to each other still\u2014but on a broader platform.<\/p>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\"><em>Want to learn more about the latest design narratives?

That means culturally, it means gender, it means professionally from disciplines like public health. It&#8217;s an invitation into a very elite club of predominantly white men with pencil drawings and to think about how we use data, research, humor, and our sense of self to totally transform and create places that we all want to live in. It\u2019s an invitation to stop designing for the average and jump into creating for the whole distribution of experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW<strong>: <\/strong>I always want to answer that the show is for everyone. Like in the current series, you don&#8217;t have to be &#8216;in the know&#8217; to have a definition of public space. You don&#8217;t need to be a planner to know what a <a href=\"https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/designwire\/arauna-studio-barcelona-street-art\/\">sign in a public space<\/a> is. My partner and I were talking with some of our friends who listen to the show and Zahra Ebrahim (in Series 3, Episode 1) points that out about signage. They all said: \u201cNow we can\u2019t unsee any sign that tells you <em>not<\/em> to do something.\u201d This is what we want\u2014breaking down the language and the numbers and history so that we view, experience, perceive, and just understand our built environments a bit better.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: The design world is so visual\u2014how does that translate in audio? Why are podcasts valuable to our industry?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE<strong>:<\/strong> My hot take is that when we think that design is purely visual, we are limiting the impact of design. Minimalism and the \u201cuniversal\u201d are just what they sound like: reductive, singular. It\u2019s one reason that health gets VE\u2019d out of our schools. Design is aural landscapes and the way it makes you feel [is linked to] temperature and physiological and psychological impacts. We are here to tap into all of those pieces. We\u2019re about going maximal.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW<strong>: <\/strong>Right, the visual tends to privilege one perspective. Podcasting is a bit more inclusive because it counteracts systemic silencing. We can amplify our own and others\u2019 voices, so the fact that voices like mine and Erika&#8217;s get to speak our love languages of design, research, and policy helps counteract the disappearance of people like us\u2014with voices like ours who care about people the way we try to\u2014into the one averaged-out perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE<strong>: <\/strong>We have hyperfocused on the visual and visual aesthetics and turned away from other very direct and clear impacts on human bodies and relationships, but we&#8217;re here to call that sh*t out. The data and the research are telling us the story of these impacts now. Through qualitative and quantitative evidence, we do have enough to make a case as for the significance. If we don&#8217;t, then we continue to let the modernists with their pencils tell us what&#8217;s real.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"object-fit:cover;object-position:50% 50%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-src=\"https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Inhabit Podcast team\" class=\"wp-image-216249 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss.jpg 1500w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/768;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Inhabit Podcast team\" class=\"wp-image-216249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Interior-Design-inhabit-podcast-surround-podcast-network-InhabitSophieGuoSureshDoss.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Inhabit team, recording on location in Toronto with special guests Suresh Doss and Sophie Guo.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: What\u2019s something new you\u2019ve learned through your podcast?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE<strong>: <\/strong>The process. It keeps pointing out that design is so much more than aesthetics. It is auditory, olfactory, haptic \u2026 Now we know we have to take the time to bring people into the whole experience of Sophie\u2019s restaurant, Dream of Yunnan (Series 3, Episode 3). It\u2019s its own lesson in decentering the visual in the design world, which extends to Lauren\u2019s thoughtfulness in the transcript\u2014being inclusive by calling out the music and all the sound layers in the episode.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW<strong>: <\/strong>We use storytelling all the time in urban design, but podcasting is a new medium. Through the power of audio and music, there are all these other ways to capture the experiences we\u2019re nerding out on with numbers and mapping and data. Yeah, and we have had to learn to slow down. At every beat in the show, we have to make sure we give listeners enough context and aren\u2019t just talking at people. Inhabit is about inviting people into the design process, and podcasting has taught us to be really intentional, beat by beat, which is an approach we can take into design for the built environment.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE: As a scientist trained in a \u201cdiscipline,\u201d I want to say <em>Inhabit<\/em> is also us pushing the definition of research. Maybe we don\u2019t lead with the \u201cliterature review.\u201d Maybe we lead with actually being really careful observers of the world we live in and show the process of embedding ourselves in the research. Then the intersection of rigor and creativity prepares us for moments like touring Border X Brewing with David Favela at the National Planning Conference in San Diego. Eunice and I were presenting together on public health and public space in spring 2021. We were in the midst of talking about what our first series together would be. And suddenly, our research collaboration and the podcast dropped us down in David\u2019s tour. The show gave us license to say to ourselves: &#8220;Oh, alright. This can be a prologue to a longer series.&#8221; This is our summer jam. Let\u2019s do it.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: Can you tell us about a guest or topic that inspired or surprised you?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE and EW: David Favela.<br><br>EE:<strong> <\/strong>We met David and were like: \u201cHere\u2019s a brave owner\u2014not a capital D designer but you are also thinking about design: square footage, adjacency, anchor tenants \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW<strong>: <\/strong>What we learned from David did inform how we approached the current series on Toronto. We decided we were not just going to talk to planners and designers. We invited all kinds of other voices into what it takes to make a city\u2014including a food writer.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: Where do you find ideas and inspiration for new episodes?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE<strong>:<\/strong> Talking to Eunice.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW: Talking to Erika.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: What is your number 1 tip for an aspiring podcaster?<br \/><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE<strong>:<\/strong> Build a great team. You don\u2019t want to do it alone. You need a team you can trust. And a great team means you have multiple perspectives, constantly deepening the story you&#8217;re trying to tell. We aren\u2019t just reproducing our biases here.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW: Be open to learn. We\u2019re not just here to be experts. I learn something from Erika every episode, so being open to that, sharing facts and our lived experiences. To Erika&#8217;s point, you need a safe space to do that, where we can tell our own stories in our own voices without filtering it or forcing it to sound a certain way. <em>Inhabit <\/em>is all very natural because no one is feeding us these words.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: What are your favorite podcasts (both in and out of the A&amp;D world)?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE: <a href=\"https:\/\/crooked.com\/podcast-series\/lovett-or-leave-it\/\"><em>Lovett or Leave It<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em> It satisfies my nerdy and goofy sides. They had the rat czar on in the last episode and it was nice. And BD Wong, a huge film and Broadway star.

We are working on a little bit of everything. In the Human Experience Lab we maintain an online resource called Healthy K-12 by Design, which increases designers\u2019 access to public health data, methods, and research\u2014especially in our K-12 spaces. The ASID Foundation has funded us to develop a public health tool, PRECEDE (Public Repository to Engage Community and Enhance Design Equity), that educates, quantifies, and strategizes to meet community health. On an individual scale, we are supporting the design of the Worcester Fire Station and William E. Carter School.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW: In the Toronto studio, the urban design team is just trying to walk the talk about context-specific, culturally appropriate design solutions for different neighborhoods across North America. And across all different scales of planning, too, like a new planning and design framework for the Jane Finch neighborhood in Toronto\u2014that\u2019s where the Corner Commons project from the parking-lots episode is; an updated zoning code to tackle sea-level rise in Miami Beach; and a full Downtown plan for Winnipeg that\u2019s aiming to bring people back into their vibrant urban core. Outside of client work, Erika and I are pretty inseparable\u2014I\u2019m also part of the Human Experience Lab and working on PRECEDE. I\u2019m doing research on the Feminist City with my colleague Vinaya Mani\u2014we can talk your ear off about how even the operations of snow clearing on sidewalks has sexist implications!<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: Looking back, what are your earliest memories of architecture and design that led you to your current career?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE: My career didn\u2019t start in design or architecture. It started with the now cliche statistic: We spend 90% of our time indoors.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW: Haha, I spent 99% of my time indoors growing up. I was a LEGO kid (total design cliche). And a Making-Websites kid. And a Tear-Apart-a-<a href=\"https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/designwire\/8-barbie-pink-interior-designs\/\">Barbie<\/a>-and-Put-Her-Back-Together-Again kid.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: Name an unexpected source of design inspiration and how you translate that spark into your work.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE: Is it lame to say just other humans? Cinnabon chairs. Being a witness to what\u2019s happening right now.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EW: I\u2019m on the same page. I love people-watching. It\u2019s like playing that game at a bar where you try to figure out what people\u2019s relationships are\u2026Are they siblings? Colleagues? Long-lost lovers?<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>SURROUND: What\u2019s one bold design prediction you\u2019d make for the next 10 years?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">EE: <a href=\"https:\/\/interiordesign.net\/projects\/maximalist-decor-miami-mr-alex-tate-design\/\">Maximalism<\/a> and cultural acceptance. Color, vibrancy, and pattern. Decolonialize what is beautiful in design. Technology only takes us so far. Design has to take us the rest of the way. Rebooting innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Eunice: Totally.
