I have been in the design industry for over 20 years now, I have held probably every possible position you can imagine, from junior Web Designer to Art Director across agencies, and from UX Designer to Head of Design across the tech start-up world, I’ve spoken at over a dozen events ranging from webinars, and companies, to national and global summits. Designerhead was born some years back, and is probably the best description of who I am as a creative, designer, and design leader, as I tried myself in a range of design disciplines and industries, I felt like I have a thing or two to say :)

In this episode, I share my passion for design, how it began, how it steered my career, and how it shaped me as a designer, and creative, and developed my core belief system.


And why I think passion is a vital part of being a successful designer, and why you should find your passion too.

In this episode, I am talking about something that has been on my mind for a while now.

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
