Speaker Series: Joey Zeledón

Joey Zeledón (he/they/she) doesn’t just design things—they elevate them, helping products find their higher purpose. Joey is an award-winning designer, with nearly two decades of experience working with top industry names like HP, Steelcase, Smart Design, Continuum, and Clarks. Their work, from everyday items to thoughtfully reimagined furniture, blends emotional depth with practicality, always with an eye on comfort and connection. They’re also the author of “Design is Trans” and Touchy/Feely, which explores the idea of emotional ergonomics, reminding us that design isn’t just about how something looks or works, but about how it feels.
