In this episode of Designing Futures, Angela is joined by Michael DiTullo, a dear friend of hers and the founder and creative chief director of Michael DiTullo LLC. Michael has created iconic and innovative products and brand experiences for companies that want to disrupt their categories and impact culture. Heâs skilled in brand positioning, innovation strategy, product roadmapping, industrial design packaging, and OOBE while covering categories like retail experience, interior architecture, robotics, footwear, and many more. Michael shares his thoughts on brand consistency and running his own business but spoke on the path he took to get to that point. He spoke on the various leadership positions he held from Nike to Frog and other companies and building an incredible body of work and deciding it was time to work for himself. They talk about how design is a trust based industry and how there are many portfolios and aesthetics that seem to be the same as everybody elseâs now compared to the years prior which prevents risk taking for most, where Michael explains how his independent practice charges a premium for unique results. Angela and Michael discuss the impact of the pandemic on the design and his relationship with clients post pandemic, how they should be in agreement that theyâre going to have to try stuff. Michael also speaks about the differences he notices in being an âintrepreneurâ versus an entrepreneur, being on the corporate side of design but also what it takes to run a successful consultancy. Finally, they discuss Michaelâs mindset/ outlook and how he sees himself as less of simply an âexpertâ and more as someone who is âhere to help move things forward.â

"The pace of material innovation has increased rapidly. So, it's hard to keep up as well. That's another thing for designers - they have to keep up with the material innovation."
Welcome back to the second season of Designing Futures!
We're kicking it off with an amazing first episode featuring Sarah D'Sylva of hyloh. where she discusses with Angela her life as a new mother while running her company as well as how designers are shifting into having sustainable material at the core of their design process with innovation in mind.
Sarah mentions that her view on design has changed the moment she had her daughter because now she looks at design with a higher purpose because whatever product the industry releases today will predict the world that her child will have in the future.

"You have to collaborate. You have to answer these hard questions. You have to test everything thoroughly. And be ready to have that idea be obsolete within two years. That is the world we work in and that's why we need more designers to to work this way. To be curious and and to work both on the technical side and on the magical side of design. And go back and forth within the two. Otherwise, we're just going to get stuck." - Phnam Bagley

"No two designers are really going to be exactly the same. That's what makes, especially from our perspective, recruiting for design so difficult. Sometimes you would wish, "Why can't we just hire doctors with years of experience in the field," and be like, "Yeah, you're good". From industrial designers to graphic designers to UX designers, they're going to have maybe similar language, but they're going to have vastly different paths and experiences that have flavored how they want to work." - Sean Bender
