Hybrid Design, Volumes Design Library

In a world obsessed with speed and specialization, the most original work rarely comes from a single moment of inspiration. It comes from years of collecting experiences, exploring unexpected interests, and connecting ideas across disciplines.

Drawing from the stories and projects featured in Hybrid: Curiosity in All Things, designer Dora Drimalas shares why curiosity isn't simply a personality trait—it's a creative practice. From Nike and Amazon to Mohawk, Sonos, and The North Face, you'll discover how publishing, architecture, film, industrial design, museums, toys, and travel all became ingredients for better ideas.

This isn't a talk about finding inspiration.

It's about building it.

You'll leave with a new perspective on curiosity as a lifelong investment, creativity as the art of connecting, and why the ideas that change culture are rarely created in isolation—they're accumulated over time.
