UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI

Marcus Djuhadi is a senior studying Communication Design at the University of Cincinnati DAAP. He envisions opportunities to enrich people’s lives through meaningful interactions with digital products, services, and brands. Energized by collaboration, he loves building a deep understanding of others and honoring their voices to craft solutions. Recently, he’s been curious about the role of narrative in design, experimenting with generative methods to amplify stories worth sharing. Beyond the studio, Marcus helps lead his school’s Design for America chapter through strategic initiatives benefiting the Cincinnati community. This passion for design innovation has taken him across the country, where he’s worked with the brilliant teams at Punchcut, WeWork, Grand Studio, Evolve Collaborative, and Relish Works. In his free time, he enjoys tap dancing, throwing clay on pottery wheels, and hosting the ultimate game night.

WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL INSPIRED?

I feel most inspired when I step away from the screen and into the kitchen to test recipes. Currently, I’m investigating new flavor combinations for pies!

WHAT AREA OR AREAS OF DESIGN ARE YOU HOPING TO WORK IN OR SPECIALIZE IN?

Innovation strategy, product design, service design

WHAT IS ONE THING THAT DESIGN SCHOOL HAS TAUGHT YOU THAT YOU DID NOT EXPECT?

Perfection is the enemy of progress. Through school, I’ve grown comfortable with learning through scrappy prototypes, navigating ambiguity, and making decisions.

WHAT ARE YOU READING/LISTENING TO/WATCHING?

I’ll never get tired of listening to The Moth Radio Hour podcast or Maude Latour’s discography.
