Insights on design from a four-legged studio mate

2nd October, 2023 by Lydia Thornley

Studio Snack is a monthly food podcast about design, made with creative collaborator Narcis Sauleda. In our latest episode, we ask a four-legged studio mate how dogs choose snacks, we find dog treat history in our creative neighbourhood and we consider who packaging is actually for. Listen to Studio Snacks for Studio Dogs. More about the project here.
