So far we've featured the stories of Atlanta innovators Dayle Bennett and Andrew Young on our Instagram (https://t.co/AkVKwPmrKF). Want us to interview someone in particular who's in the ATL innovation and design scene? Let us know!

Design thinking is important.
Design critique is key.
Design ethics is vital.

And yet, skilled practitioners argue over what DT “is”, cogent critiques of the products and impacts of design are rare, and “design ethics” is often displeasure at the behavior of tech behemoths.
