Why Blu Dot wants to make good design democratic
Making good design democratic has been at the core of modern furniture company Blu Dot since its founding in 1997. Co-founders John Christakos, Maurice Blanks and Charlie Lazor set out to create an American furniture company in an era when venture capital, attainable modern design and an assertive brand voice didn\u2019t exist in the home industry. Twenty years later, Blu Dot\u2019s forging efforts haven\u2019t gone unnoticed. This year, the company celebrated its recognition as the Cooper Hewitt National Design Award winner for Product Design, as well the debut of a memoir chronicling the Minneapolis company\u2019s pioneering journey.\xa0This episode is sponsored by Fuigo.
