Inhabit

by Perkins&Will

From global architecture and design firm Perkins&Will, a show about the power of design. Hosts Dr. Erika Eitland and Eunice Wong and their many nerd friends get into the science, the history, the stories, and the decision making that help us understand the spaces we inhabit and how they need to change. We also spotlight what you can do to take the power of design into your own hands.
