In this episode I talk to two guests who share an interest in remaking the world around them, First, we head over to Baltimore, to meet Will Holman, whose book, Guerrilla Furniture Design, is a handbook for the resourceful, nomadic maker.

Then we come back to London, to meet Pascal Anson, a designer who specialises in turning the ordinary into the extraordinary – and has also written a book about it.
