The Open
Question

Season One

Ten conversations.

In each episode of Scaling Design, a leading design mind assesses the moment in their own way. No fluff, no industry chatter. Pure creative talk.

Across ten special episodes we'll find out — from the people actually in it — what design becomes next.

The Audience

A show for builders.

Made for a small room: the 10,000+ designers on Moonchild, and the like-minded builders experimenting with kindred tools across the ecosystem.

We already know AI design has arrived. Now we're asking the harder question — how to best create products at scale?

About the Host

Steven Schkolne

A relentless pioneer working at the intersection of art and code — starting with a CS PhD at Caltech for building the world's first artmaking tools for VR. He's built a Fortune 100 agency business from the ground up, shown work at LACMA and MOCA, and engineered a company to a PayPal exit. Now building Moonchild.ai, an AI-native design tool.

An active writer, Steven has been on many podcasts. This is his first time hosting a show. Scaling Design is designed to scratch an intellectual itch, with practical implications for our field.
