DEIB consultant and interior design expert Jessica Bantom was determined to write a book that would impact her industry in a positive way. With "Design for Identity," she has managed to write a book that can reach design students in classrooms and designers already working in firms. This book will transform the way designers consider marginalized or underrepresented people in their work.
