Hello, welcome to another episode of This is HCD. My name is Gerry Scullion, and I’m a Human Centered Design Practitioner based in Australia. The episode that you are about to hear was recorded in Melbourne CBD so would like to acknowledge the Boonwarung people of the Kulin nation as the traditional custodians of the land where we meet today and pay respect to their elders, both past and present.

Chirryl-Lee Ryan is what she calls, a transdisciplinary design practitioner, merging many design disciplines into a super force. Anyone who is familiar with Chirryl will know she is a no-holds-barred speaker. She says what she means, and mean what she says and is a force to be reckoned with.

We were recently together on a Design Panel about Designing for Social Impact for Academy XI in Sydney and had a whale of a time.

We caught up in Melbourne to extend that conversation and go deeper into areas that we touched on such as ‘are we making things better’ ‘what shoes would chirryl wear in a zombie apocalypse, and what the future of design looks like through Chirryl’s eyes.
