Parola Progetto torna con una puntata registrata dal vivo a Roma, e lo fa con Claudia Campone, una delle voci più interessanti del design italiano di oggi.Claudia ha fondato THiRTYONE (rigorosamente con la i minuscola) a 31 anni, partendo da un'idea semplice e potente: che si può sempre fare qualcosa in più. Lei lo fa con negozi, boutique, interni, installazioni temporanee e oggetti, che ha progettato per Dior, Bulgari, Etro, Uniqlo, Loro Piana, Fendi e molti altri. Dalla cupola del Pantheon in vetroresina a Las Vegas alle vetrine affacciate sulle Mura Serviane di Roma, il suo lavoro vive sempre nell'intreccio tra comunicazione visiva, spazio e identità di brand.In questa conversazione si parla di come viviamo gli spazi e di cosa significa davvero progettare un negozio. Si parla di neuroscienze e di basiliche romane, di labirinti e di Pinocchio, di archistar e di instagrammabilità. E di come, ad ogni 30 che si raggiunge, dovrebbe sempre seguire un 31. Buon ascolto!------------------------------------I link dell'episodio:- Il sito di THiRTYONE Design+Management https://www.thirtyonedesign.it- "Saper vedere l'architettura: saggio sull'interpretazione spaziale dell'architettura" di Bruno Zevi https://www.einaudi.it/catalogo-libri/arte-e-musica/architettura/saper-vedere-larchitettura-bruno-zevi-9788806201067/- Il primo libro suggerito da Claudia, "Le avventure di Pinocchio" di Carlo Collodi https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_avventure_di_Pinocchio._Storia_di_un_burattino- Il secondo libro consigliato da Claudia, "Amiamo l'architettura.

He has always been deeply interested in creativity, visual storytelling, and observing everyday problems around him. For Aanik, design is not just about aesthetics, but about creating meaningful and practical solutions that improve people's experiences.He enjoys sketching, exploring ideas, and thinking about how small changes in products or systems can make daily life easier and more comfortable. Like many design aspirants, Aanik switched from JEE preparation to UCEED during his preparation journey. It was one of his relatives who introduced him to design entrance exams, but by then, it was too late for him to apply for UCEED that year. With only one attempt remaining, he went on to secure an AIR 17 in the General Category in UCEED 2026. ________________________________________Order the book: INTRODUCTION TO DESIGN“Introduction to Design” isn't just a book; it's a helpful guide that clears up confusion, busts myths, and shows the way for new designers.

Nearly a quarter of Americans have no traditional next of kin, yet the financial planning industry has long operated as if everyone will eventually have children. Melissa Joy, CFP® sits down with Maddy Roche, co-host of the Child Free Life by Design Podcast and Chief Growth Officer of Partnerships for Child Free Trust, to talk about what changes and what becomes possible when you are building a financial life without kids. Maddy brings both personal and professional perspective to the conversation. As someone who is child free by choice, she shares how a financial plan created specifically for her shifted her entire mindset around spending, legacy, and the concept of dying with zero. She and Melissa dig into why estate planning has been so hard for this demographic to complete, why that needs to change, and how Child Free Trust is filling a gap that trust companies and traditional advisors have largely left open. What You'll Learn Why child free people represent a distinct and underserved financial planning demographic How planning assumptions tied to children create blind spots for advisors working with this group Why long-term care insurance matters more than life insurance for most child free people What the die with zero philosophy means and how it gives child free people a financial permission slip to spend and experience more Why upwards of 70 percent of child free people do not have a legally binding estate plan in place How to reframe estate planning as contingency planning and why it matters long before death What roles are required in a complete estate plan and why they are especially hard to fill without children How Child Free Trust serves as a professional fiduciary in the roles of medical and financial power of attorney, executor, and trustee Why hourly billing rather than assets under management makes professional fiduciary services more accessible How the Child Free Trust care document captures everything from pet care plans to end of life wishes Estate Planning and Membership: ChildFreeTrust.com Thought Leadership, Podcast, and Community: ChildFreeInsights.com The previous presentation by PEARL PLANNING was intended for general information purposes only.  No portion of the presentation serves as the receipt of, or as a substitute for, personalized investment advice from PEARL PLANNING or any other investment professional of your choosing.

Most designers grow up dreaming about cars. Fewer understand what it actually takes to make one.Host Dario Olivero sits down with Cosimo Amadei, Design Director at Mahindra Advanced Design Europe, and Rafael Piccoli, transportation design student, to talk through what the industry looks like from both ends.

In this episode of Architecture, Design & Photography, Trent Bell sits down with Mike Corsie of Terrapin Landscapes to talk about building a business from the ground up, evolving from lawn care into high-end design-build work, and creating landscapes that feel deeply rooted in Maine.  Mike reflects on 25 years in business, the turning points that helped shape Terrapin's identity, and the importance of craftsmanship, trust, and doing what you say you're going to do. The conversation also explores how landscape can tie architecture to place, why native plants and stone matter, and how great outdoor spaces become part of the experience of home.  They also get into the bigger picture: the realities of running a seasonal business, the pressures of creative work, the changing character of coastal Maine, and the tension between thoughtful development and preserving what makes a place feel authentic. About Terrapin Landscapes:  In 2001, Terrapin consisted of Mike Corsie, a truck, and a mower. He built a network of clients in the community around his home of Kennebunkport and delivered on the promise of deeply personal, quality work. Over the years, he invested what he earned back into the business, adding equipment and building an equally committed team. He connected with clients who wanted much more than a manicured lawn and began flexing the design principles that you recognize in Terrapin today: natural stonework, native plants, careful shoreline stabilization, and an overarching sense of belonging.  Today, Terrapin is recognized as one of Southern Maine's premier landscape companies, with a full-time crew of landscapers, masons, and horticulturists, a fleet of hard earned trucks, and a gorgeous design office in Arundel, ME.

Grant Kirkwood, CEO of Contrivian, spoke with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, during the Channel Partners Conference & Expo about the company's vision for resilient connectivity through multi-constellation satellite and hybrid network architectures. Kirkwood explained that Contrivian is addressing a growing need for reliable, always-on connectivity by combining Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks with terrestrial infrastructure into a unified, software-defined platform. This approach allows enterprises and service providers to deliver connectivity that mirrors the resilience traditionally associated with fiber networks. “We're bringing terrestrial-grade resilience to LEO by unifying multiple networks into a single, intelligent platform,” Kirkwood said. The company's platform integrates multiple connectivity options—including satellite, fiber, LTE/5G, and broadband—into a cohesive ecosystem that can dynamically route traffic based on availability and performance. This architecture is particularly valuable for mission-critical environments where downtime is not an option. The discussion also highlighted how Contrivian enables partners to shift from selling connectivity components to delivering outcomes. By abstracting the complexity of multi-network environments, partners can offer reliable, high-performance connectivity solutions without managing multiple vendors and contracts. As conversations at Channel Partners continue to focus on next-generation connectivity and network resilience, Contrivian is positioning its platform as a key enabler of seamless, intelligent infrastructure for enterprises and service providers.

In this insightful interview, Bruno Carvalho discusses the invention of the future, urban development, and the impact of technological and societal changes on cities from Lisbon to the US. Trent and Bruno explore how history, religion, law, and innovation shape our cities and societies, with a focus on creating sustainable, inclusive, and adaptable urban environments. More about is new book: THE INVENTION OF THE FUTURE: A History of Cities in the Modern World.  The future has always been inextricable from urban planning. As the sea level rises and the effects of climate change become harder to ignore, plans for futuristic urban centers like Saudi Arabia's mirrored megacity (The Line) and a floating city in the Maldives make for splashy headlines. Our modern cities—sources of greenhouse gas emissions and water pollution, overcrowding and urban sprawl—pale in comparison. Bruno Carvalho argues in THE INVENTION OF THE FUTURE that while modern-day New York City may not be designed for a period of climate emergency, its nineteenth-century architects certainly had the future in mind when laying out the plans. Carvalho details the feats of engineering that restored Lisbon after the 1755 earthquake, transformed Paris from a medieval city into a grand metropolis, and made sprawling cities like Manhattan easier to plan and develop via the implementation of a grid system. He considers how technological innovations (steel, steam-powered engines, automobiles) and social change (the abolition of slavery, the overthrow of colonial rule) led to the rapid growth and expansion of cities in the global South, from Buenos Aires to Brasilia to Lagos.  The future may appear bleak from our vantage point, but “there is a lot of space for reinvention,” Carvalho writes, “and if we must reinvent, there might be no better place to look than the history of the future.”Bruno Carvalho is a professor at Harvard University, where he teaches courses on cities. He is the author of Porous City: A Cultural History of Rio de Janeiro.  More from us:  Website: www.adppodcast.com  Instagram: http://instagram.com/adppod_  Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/architecture-design-photography/id1447381737  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5qTtT0lpXkVGyksEkN57VS

Coach Chris Wilson sits down with Dr. Ron Eccles to explore the growing role of peptides and GLP-based therapies in sustainable weight and fat loss. Dr. Eccles breaks down peptides in simple terms, explaining how gut hormones like GLP-1, GLP-2, and GIP influence hunger, metabolism, and body composition. Together, they discuss why weight loss alone doesn't equal better health—and how preserving muscle, protecting joints, and improving metabolic health must be part of the equation.The conversation also tackles America's declining health outcomes, the concept of the “bliss point” in eating behavior, and what truly happens after you reach your target weight. Dr. Eccles shares insights on emerging peptide technologies, common myths around GLPs, and why lifestyle factors like sleep, movement, and nutrition determine long-term success. You'll also hear real-world lessons from clinical practice, including differences between men and women and the key health metrics that actually matter. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about modern weight-loss solutions and how to approach them safely, intelligently, and with long-term health in mind. Time Stamps00:00 – Lose weight the wrong way: Hidden dangers for anyone over 4000:56 — Welcome to the Strong by Design podcast!02:20 – Join Coach Chris and special guest Dr. Ron Eccles03:11 – Dr. Ron's 4 pillars of life balance—and why health is a top priority05:06 – Peptides explained: What they are and how they work06:56 – Discover the peptide that started it all10:38 – GLP-1, GLP-2, and GIP: the gut peptides that silence hunger12:53 – Why losing weight isn't the same as building a better body14:48 - Discussion of the abysmal health outcomes in America16:59 – The concept of the “Bliss Point” explained19:06 – What comes next? 3 options after hitting your target21:02 – Next-level peptides: control appetite, burn fat, and save muscle26:50 – The future of peptides: No injections required29:12 – Debunking myths about GLPs33:30 – How chronic joint pain affected Dr. Eccles's wife36:33 – Weight loss differences between men and women37:56 – The 5 key metrics Dr. Eccles tracks with his clients39:18 – The science behind Alpha Shred revealed43:35 – Lifestyle factors that make peptides work47:02 – Why sleep is essential for brain health53:31 – Key advice before your peptide journey55:39 – Why some “unconventional” doctors get it right1:00:26 - Stay connected beyond the episode with Ron Eccles1:03:23 - Fun fact about the Strong by Design Podcast name1:05:23 - Please share and leave ratings & reviews for the SBD podcast! Resources:15-minute Consultation at 941-799-6583Connect with Dr Ron: InstagramStart the New Year with more Focus, Clarity & Mental Energy!Grab some Neuro-Thrive at a Discount - Use Code: SBD2026

The ones who raised their rates, made hard decisions, took real rest, or simply kept going when things felt heavy. This isn't about setting new goals or pushing harder. It's about recognizing the growth that doesn't always show up on paper and giving yourself permission to rest, reflect, and trust what's next.
