I was a bit nervous about doing this interview. Not because she’s scary but because I admire her so much - and she’s employed me for one of my first jobs - at The Future Laboratory a good 13 years ago. Caro Till is the Co-Founder of FranklinTill, a design futures consultancy in colour and material innovation for positive social & environmental change.
We talk about why sustainability is such a complex subject and the 9 principles for a shift to regenerative materials that FranklinTill came up with. We talk about her experience as the curator for the exhibition ‘Our Time on Earth’ at the Barbican in 2022 which is now on a global 5 year tour and explores the role that the creative industries have in shifting our mindset to an earth-centred one.
As a friend, and also a colleague I have always been inspired by Caro’s creativity, knowledge and confidence. She is not only an industry leader but she’s a brilliant speaker. She’s a warm and generous person with a tenacity that I rarely come across. It’s a privilege to have her on this podcast, please welcome Caro Till.
