Episode Description

Every object, product, and place is designed for someone—but too often, that “someone” has been treated as male by default. In Man-Made: How We Designed a World That Leaves Women Out, and How We Can Make It Right, designer and former Nike Global Creative Director Karen Korellis Reuther shows how biased design can make daily life less comfortable, less dignified, and even less safe for women. Then, in Building for Everyone, Google’s Annie Jean-Baptiste shows how inclusive design can create better products, better experiences, and a better world for more people.
