Why are we still designing workplaces that make women invisible?

Brain fog. Anxiety. Hot flashes. These aren't personal failings — they're real, they're disruptive, and for too many women, they're the reason a career quietly ends before it should.Small design shifts can signal something much bigger: quiet zones, adjustable temperature, natural light. But this isn't just about square footage — it's about culture. About normalising conversations around hormonal health the same way we talk about mental health or neurodiversity.This is a snippet from my recent conversation with workplace specialist Morag Dearsley of Form Design — recorded for both Design Lives Here and The Peri Survivor. It's one of those interviews that stayed with me long after we stopped recording.What's one change you think workplaces could make right now?

Restoring Community: Urban Regeneration, Green Space & the 20-Minute Neighbourhood with Martin McKay & Lisa Blyth

What does it actually take to bring a neglected part of a city back to life — properly, not just on paper?In this episode I sit down with Martin McKay, Chief Executive of Clyde Gateway, and Lisa Blyth of 7N Architects, to dig into one of the most ambitious urban regeneration projects in Scotland right now. We talk about what it means to build a genuine ecosystem — not just housing, not just offices, but a living, breathing community where people can walk out their front door and into their life.We cover everything from biodiversity strategies and the power of landscape, to the 20-minute neighbourhood, the role of independent hospitality, and why volume house builders are driving us all a little bit mad.This one's for anyone who cares about how our cities are shaped, who shapes them, and why leadership, collaboration and a clear set of values make all the difference.Recorded at East Works, Dalmarnock — right in the heart of the Clyde Gateway masterplan area.

Designing Cities Through Food | Nicky Wightman (Savills) on Emerging Trends, Real Estate & Community

In this episode of Design Lives Here, Sara Seravalli sits down with Nicky Wightman, Director of Emerging Trends at Savills, to explore a topic the built environment has overlooked for far too long: food.What does “good” look like in design today? And why should real estate developers care about what’s on our plates?Together, Sara and Nicky dive into the powerful intersection between food systems, property, placemaking and community wellbeing. From Scandinavian leadership in progressive design to Glasgow’s vibrant youth culture and food scene, this conversation challenges the industry to rethink how cities nourish their people — physically, socially and economically.They explore:<ul><li>How food choices impact both personal health and the environment</li><li>Why access to healthy food is a real estate issue</li><li>Global cities leading the way in food systems thinking</li><li>The cultural power of local produce</li><li>Why food connects communities and brings joy</li></ul>And there’s a special little cameo from our wonderful in-house chef Darren Morton, reminding us that design and food are never just theoretical — they’re lived, tasted and shared.As always, there’s also a personal thread woven through the conversation — Sara is currently fundraising for Macmillan in the boldest way possible 💚If you care about the future of cities, community and meaningful design — this one is for you.👉 Subscribe for more conversations with the people shaping our built environment.
