Categories:

This episode of Transcend Your Dichotomy features an interview with one of Brooke’s longest-standing clients, Laneen Wells. As the founder of Sublation Studio, a design and discussion studio, Laneen offers creative services focused on intersectionality, accessibility, and diversity through inclusive practices, education, and advocacy. They talk about their journey from art and philosophy to graphic design, their commitment to accessibility and inclusion in design, and their dedication to continuously challenging the industry to do better. Brooke and Laneen also discuss the challenges of designing with accessibility in mind and the low-hanging fruit that can easily be implemented - what we need to do is focus on people's needs rather than making it overly academic and highbrow. The podcast also highlights the importance of prioritizing accessibility and inclusion in design to reach and engage with a broader audience.
