Creative Excellence: Season Three of Design Next

2 February 2026

Design Next

In the face of challenge, of change, of consistent inconsistency, the greatest studios are all focused on one thing: Creative Excellence.

But what does creative excellence actually mean now?

How do you weave it into every process and project?

And what does it take to sustain it?

This is the topic of series three of the Design Next podcast, where we speak to global creative leaders.

We explore how these design icons define, pursue and evolve excellence in their work, their teams, and themselves – across different contexts, pressures, and stages of a career.
