White designers still make up more than 70 per cent of the industry, according to the Design Census. So, why are the designers of colour missing in action? This month, we chat with up-and-coming designer Mitzi Okou, Founder of 'Where are the Black Designers?' Okou candidly shares her experiences as a young designer pushing for systemic change, moving the Black design narrative away from tragedy, and why prioritising diversity in design is the biggest opportunity we have as an industry — both for society and business.
