Summary: #ServiceDesign Teacher and Practitioner, Vincenzo Di Maria work focuses on socially responsive design and innovation ranging from products to services and experiences. He trained as a designer at Central St. Martin’s College of Art Design in London, where he’ll be running the <a href="http://gotocommonground.com/blog/post/service-design-summer-2012-SDS12">Service Design Summer Course</a> the first two weeks of August this year. <br> <br> The podcast centered on Vincenzo teaching and the learning experience of the Summer Design Course and I believe you will find his methods truly unique. I thought that 2-weeks was an awful long time for business people to dedicate to a learning experience. This one, may be well worth it. <br> <br> Vincenzo Di Maria is and co-founder of <a href="http://gotocommonground.com/">Common Ground</a>, a service design firm working across Europe. Their work focuses on socially responsive design and innovation ranging from products to services and experiences. The Common Ground approach to design is holistic, playful and people-centred. <br> <br> An excerpt from the podcast, <a href="http://business901.com/blog1/the-two-worlds-of-service-design/">The Two Worlds of Service Design</a>. <br> <br> Related Information: <br> <br> <a href="http://business901.com/lean-service-design/">Lean Service Design Workshop</a> <br> <br> <a href="http://business901.com/lean-service-design/lean-service-design-trilogy-workshop/">Lean Service Design Trilogy Workshop</a>
