Design Over Drinks Mon, 10 Aug 2026 14:06:22 -0400 https://designoverdrinks.buzzsprout.com en-us © 2026 Design Over Drinks yes b1ab96da-40cd-5d39-80a0-79550357081d Kendra Shea, Host episodic false Design Over Drinks is an interview style podcast aiming to be a forum for emerging designers to talk about our philosophies, trends, experiences, successes, failures, diversity, advocacy, predictions, and everything in between. Why over drinks? Because designers often have a beverage in hand. Whether its a hot coffee or chai to start the day, or a glass of wine with coworkers to end it. A kombucha, or bubble tea, even that trusty bottle of water as we go from meeting to emails, to 30 minutes of actual work. We always have a hand for a drink. I started this podcast when Covid-19 hit in 2020. I spent a lot of time listening to the giants of design talk about what they predicted the future to be like, and how our profession will adapt as our world changes. Although that is important, I felt disconnected from the designer who is doing the production work, the designer who had to adapt because their schooling was like no others. I wanted to talk to the designer who will be the potential "giant" of the future. I like being a designer, but I love to talk about it more. My younger self hoped to someday be an art curator and a philosopher. In a way this is how I still hope to do just that.

I am first to admit that Sustainability is not something I know a lot about. It’s something I’ve been aware of my entire life, but as a design practice is not a specialty I’ve done beyond the basics (reusing existing materials from site, or choosing options that produce less carbon or can be recycled). As I began brainstorming for the Deep Dive Series one of the first things I knew I had to discuss, was Sustainability.

So I asked my friend Jennifer Collins, to come along with me as I explore this topic. She is the founder of OneRejen a sustainable consulting firm, and the perfect person to get us going on the topic of Regenerative Design. Enjoy!

Note: My sound is not great this episode, I was still working through some mic issues when this was recorded. I sound tin-can-y, sometimes you will hear me typing (why is this keyboard so loud?!), and clicking my mouse (why is this loud too?!!), or moving in my creaky ass chair (why are chairs so loud!?!) in the background while I am speaking.
