Re:Design

What does human-centred, inclusive design really look like in practice - not as a checklist, not as an afterthought, but as thinking that has the power to transform the spaces, systems and environments we interact with every day? Re:Design is a podcast series from Mima, a human-centric, inclusive design consultancy with nearly 50 years of experience helping organisations create environments and experiences that genuinely work for people across different bodies, identities and ways of engaging with the world. Across this series, we bring together experts from museums, rail and transport, green spaces, technology start-ups, wayfinding and disability innovation to explore what inclusive design looks like when it's embedded from the very start. We hear how co-design workshops with nursery children transformed a gallery, why disabled people make 30% fewer journeys a year, what it takes to make a forest truly welcoming, how a start-up pivoted its entire platform by listening to users, and why the best wayfinding goes far beyond signs on walls. We talk about lived experience, co-creation, sensory design, accessibility, neurodiversity, the business case for inclusion, and the journeys people don't make because the system wasn't designed with them in mind. And we explore a clear thread that runs through every conversation: when people are placed at the centre of decision-making, better solutions emerge - for everyone. These are practical, honest conversations grounded in real projects, real challenges and real learning. If you believe that designing with people - not just for them - leads to richer, smarter, more rewarding outcomes, this series is for you. New episodes released fortnightly from 11/05/26.
