This series had interesting content and I enjoyed hearing from multiple designers' perspectives and their processes. Interesting advice and applications for materials. Was hoping for a more generically applicable "for these kinds of applications, many people have chosen X, Y, Z materials for these reasons" etc. One side note, i think it is kind of funny that the "practical application of transportation design" section is about interior design of a private jet.
