Manage episode 491118021 series 2730845
Why Human Connection Will Define the Future of Design
In this episode, experiential architect and design entrepreneur Kitae Kim shares how his early love for art evolved into a mission to transform how designers connect with clients. Drawing from his experiences with large-scale public art and architectural installations, Kitae discusses the communication gaps that plague traditional design presentations. He explains how current methods often fail to convey the emotional and functional depth of a design, which can hinder trust, collaboration, and profitability.
Kitae introduces Foveate, a platform he co-founded to help designers present their ideas using immersive 3D tools and intuitive storytelling. By leveraging technology like VR and interactive design environments, Foveate enables a more human-centered design process that strengthens the architect-client relationship. He emphasizes that in an increasingly digital world, the future of design will belong to those who can build connection, not just concepts.
Kitae also shares advice for small firms looking to stand out, urging them to focus on brand clarity and the emotional impact of their work. As the design industry evolves with AI and immersive tech, he argues that architects must evolve too—by mastering the art of storytelling and redefining the way they sell ideas.
