## Resource

It’s a jam-packed episode of By Design—and for good reason. First, we’ll share some big news of our own before moving onto the design world’s latest. We look at how Claude Design caught Anthropic’s collaborators (and competitors) by surprise and unpack the Trump administration’s newest design hire: Peter Arnell as the nation’s “chief brand architect.” Then, Mark sits down with Mauro Porcini, Samsung’s chief design officer, for a wide-ranging conversation about his illustrious career. To close things out, we have a good, old-fashioned hot-or-not. Mentioned this time: Target’s revamped cart, an overdue Venmo update, Threads’ new logo, Pinterest tells users to go outside, and Ikea’s latest stab at an inflatable chair.
