Michael & Denise Okuda: Designing Star Trek

"We are fans too." Sistas Fran and Tamia sit down with legendary Star Trek designers Michael and Denise Okuda—the creative minds behind LCARS, iconic starship displays, and so much more. In this heartfelt conversation, the Okudas share how their love for Trek—and deep respect for its fans—inspired decades of groundbreaking design. They're not just part of Star Trek history—they're fans too. And they've always wanted to get it right for the biggest Trekkies of all.
