Show Notes

The Lighthouse was conceived as a design-centric brand from the outset and its founders never took its design aesthetic—whether interior, graphic or digital design—for granted. So when joined this week by Tarik Al-Zaharna, Founder of [T.ZED Architects](http://tzed-architects.com), we asked him to take us through his journey into entrepreneurship when he launched his firm five years ago, his thoughts on why and how to create friction in design and how the industry might evolve in the post-Covid-19 era.
