The Utensils Experience - A fork for every occassion

Kicking off our new Local Designer series, Janice Chan joins Geoff to explore the most niche topic: utensils. But, if there's ever a topic worth finding design and business opportunities in, it's noticing the individual usefulness of the countless variety of these tools we use daily.

Highlights include:

💡 How cultural differences influence the design of our everyday tools
💡 What business opportunities arise when designing products for longevity
💡 How material choices impacts experiences and brand identities
💡 How sustainable practices can save both the environment and material costs
💡 Are sporks the ultimate utensil or an absolute failure?
