In this first episode of ArchiTea we discussed the start and progress of Design as a Protest, andhow it relates to De Nichol’s journey as a designer of many things. In our conversation we alsohighlight De’s background in communications design, and how it was fueled by her experiencesgrowing up throughout rural Mississippi. Her experiences exposed her to a lot of issues withspatial division and racial segregation specifically throughout her upbringing and even more soin St. Louis where she lived for undergrad. Throughout our discussion we also reckon with theways in which the institute of policing and the system of incarceration has been designed withinour country and how there has been a United States without police.
