In Episode #72, Ross is joined by Nando Costa, a seasoned Brazilian-American designer with experience in digital products, branding, and animation production at Microsoft and Google.
At Microsoft, Nando was part of the team that shipped the HoloLens Developer Edition and Windows Mixed Reality. He was at the forefront of a collective effort to evolve the design language for Microsoft 365 experiences across all platforms. And, after a brief stint at Google Design, Nando returned to Microsoft to work on the Microsoft Mesh team, exploring the intersection of traditional UX, immersive experiences, and generative AI.
Ross and Nando discuss how AI will change brand strategy and how we build brands. Nando also shares how he thinks AI will help shape virtual reality, and what designers can do to ensure they don’t get left behind.
