Explore Explain S5 E1: Rebecca Conroy & Duncan Swain

Welcome to the first episode of the fifth season of Explore Explain, a long-form video and podcast series about data visualisation design.

In this episode it was a pleasure to welcome Rebecca Conroy, Co-Founder and Managing Partner, and Duncan Swain, Co-Founder and Creative Partner, from Beyond Words, a design studio based in London, UK.

We explore Rebecca and Duncan’s career backgrounds, the origin story behind the founding of their studio, and how their subsequent creative and commercial journey over the past decade has been built upon a culture shaped by strong values.
