The Chairish Podcast: Episode 92 — How is The History of Design Crucial To Its Future?

Designers have always looked to the past for ideas—but there is so much design history to choose from! What styles and periods remain relevant? What still works even though modern life has undergone so many dramatic changes? What’s ready for a revival and what remains hopelessly dated, never to rise again from the dustbins of history? Two young designers—Noz Nozawa and Dan Mazzarini—and historian Emily Evans Eerdmans weigh in on why a knowledge of the past remains crucial, which periods they love and which they would rather forget, and why even 18th century bows, cuckoo clocks, and folk art quilts are ripe for reinterpretation.

Episode Guests:
Noz Nozawa, Interior Designer
Dan Mazzarini, Interior Designer
Emily Evans Eerdmans, Design Historian
