There aren’t too many podcasts devoted strictly to design — 99% Invisible, hosted by the redoubtable Roman Mars, is the most popular.
For those wishing to get a little more into the weeds, there’s Scratching the Surface, a now year-old program hosted by Jarrett Fuller, a student at the Maryland Institute College of Art, who does the exact opposite of what his show’s title suggests.
Specifically, that’s delving into the nitty-gritty of design practice and criticism with some of the most interesting figures in the field, from designers like Michael Bierut (designer of the Hillary Clinton campaign identity) and Khoi Vinh (the pioneering former design director at The New York Times) .
In the show’s most recent episode, he sat down with our own Mark Lamster to talk about criticism, architecture, urban design, preservation, Marfa, Dallas and sundry other topics.
