Open Tab № 02
The tools got easier. The thinking didn't.
Meridian's open tab is a short-form talk series where designers share what they're exploring outside of work— a side project, a craft obsession, a question they're chewing on, something with no deliverable attached. Decks welcome, polish optional.
Three designers. 10 minutes each. Then the room.
July's lineup
Omar Mohammad, design and research at CAMEL • A windmill, earth mosque(s), a minaret, an airport, and a village: indigenous and vernacular architecture in Afghanistan
Michelle Chang, founder of Seafoam Studio • DaaS (dance as a service), Using service design to create joy through movement
Eric Howard, co-founder of Direct Message, Hyperdeck, and Hard Objects • The Magic Button: Design in an era of extreme automation
