Designing with Community, Trouble and Impermanence in Mind: LinYee Yuan

LinYee Yuan is the founder of Mold, a platform that "hopes to inspire designers to improve food systems through creative, human-centric solutions." For Yuan, the role of "design" is to ask questions, and on the Progressive Hedonist podcast, she posits several thought-provoking ones: Can we build and power our future using agricultural waste products? Why does something have to last forever to be considered successful? Can we create a food forest in an urban setting? Listen in to hear the riveting answers and to understand how we can become "creative collaborators" in determining our edible future.
