On today’s episode of the Design Mind frogcast, we’re joined by Antonello Crimi, Head of Design on the West Coast, North America at frog, to talk about the shift from app-centric to language-centric technology and the potential for natural, conversation-like interactions with devices.

Antonello shares insights on how language will be used to further integrate digital touchpoints into the physical world–and how AI and natural language processing can contribute to positive mental health outcomes. Plus, Antonello tells us how a focus on quality and attention to detail has influenced the creation of a new frog typeface that embodies the brand.

Today on our show, we’re sitting down with Kara Pecknold, Vice President of Regenerative Design at frog to talk about the world-changing potential that can take place when we come together and share space—whether it’s around the boardroom table the dinner table, or even nature’s table. For starters, we explore the need for new business strategies in the face of disruption, followed by a main course of the evolving role of leaders and we finish off by asking if the solution to the climate crisis could be found by looking at nature's cycles.
