Conversations with the people behind physical product.
Talking Design & Engineering is a show about making things — hosted out of a Brooklyn 3D printing floor by Cinerita Andrandes, with guests who actually ship the products sitting on your desk.
Founded by Pratt industrial designers Christina Perla and Manny Mota, Makelab works with agencies like Doris Dev, PENSA, and Interwoven, and brands like Estée Lauder, Judith Leiber, and AiTA Bio. The podcast is the conversation side of the same work.
