We’re immensely proud to be part of the team that helped create and develop the Everly Hotels Collection. Everly's first boutique hotel, The White Horses, located on the seashore just a stone’s throw away from Brighton, UK, marks the beginning of this exciting journey. The IDEO team worked with Greene King, a leading pub retailer and brewer in the UK, to co-design Everly's brand strategy, positioning, and guest experience. Together, we worked to explore and celebrate the stories of British market towns, and connect their unique inns to their communities.

We're excited to announce that the Color by Design (CxD) Fellowship program is now accepting applications for its 2024-25 cohort! IDEO in partnership with RepresentEd designed the CxD program to help address underrepresentation in the design industry. We’re invested in transforming the boundaries of design thinking and human-centered design practice by ushering in a new generation of designers through a program that prepares you for your first design role. This year's CxD Fellowship focuses on interaction design and comprises a nine-month program: a three-month part-time professional training course followed by a six-month paid full-time fellowship at IDEO. Apply by July 31, 2024 to become a CxD fellow: https://lnkd.in/gBUTrrAg

What does it mean to design in the time of robots? For design directors Danny DeRuntz (IDEO) and Nathan Hass (Upstatement), the technological advancements of the last few years are hard to ignore — and they’re also raising questions about the part technology plays in creative roles. The two recently met for the first time to chat about how they’re using AI, balancing hype and realism when it comes to emerging technology, and why human creativity is still vital to great storytelling.

IDEO has been in the emerging tech game since we designed Apple’s first commercial mouse more than 40 years ago. Since then, we’ve designed the future of everything from kitchens to jet planes to entire school systems. 🚀 In June, IDEO’s Emerging Tech Lab brought together future-makers to experiment with us in a series of events across Cambridge, Chicago, and San Francisco. Together—and with our AI agents—we experienced evenings filled with compelling conversations, hands-on activities, and fuel for new ideas.

We’re thrilled to spotlight IDEO, our partner in the AI for Changemakers program, reinforcing our commitment to harnessing technology for positive social impact 🎆 IDEO is renowned as a global leader in design thinking, pioneering innovative solutions that redefine industries and solve complex challenges. From designing Apple's iconic computer mouse to shaping user experiences worldwide, IDEO continues to drive innovation through human-centered design. Why do they choose to support our program? Best to ask Sergio Fregoni, Executive Director, Digital and Climate at IDEO: “AI is becoming a powerful enabler in the design process, helping us to empathize with a more diverse set of audiences, speed up ideation, and prototype better solutions to real-world challenges. By the same token, applying a human-centred design lens to the development of meaningful applications of AI will help ensure that the technology is not the goal, but a means of improving human-centred outcomes, creating better products and experiences for people”. Are you a tech company ready to make a difference? 💪 Join us in empowering nonprofits through technology and design. Let's create lasting, positive change with AI! #TechForGood #AIForChangemakers #TechToTheRescue

Involving educators in the design process and increasing transparency could enhance innovation in schools, says IDEOer Eva Mejia, Ed.L.D. in a latest opinion piece for The 74 Media, an education news source. 👇
