SUMMARY:Designing at the Edge: Global Lessons in Hospitality from Netflix’s Restaurants on the Edge
DESCRIPTION:Drawing on her global work as a designer on Netflix’s Restaurants on the Edge\, Karin Bohn explores how cultural immersion\, community engagement\, and fearless storytelling can transform struggling food-and-beverage concepts into unforgettable destinations. At a time when hospitality is driven by emotion\, authenticity\, and experience—not just aesthetics—she reveals how history\, craft\, and global food culture can be translated into contemporary\, commercially successful design. Shaped by her German-Chinese heritage and international perspective\, Karin demonstrates how global thinking can be applied powerfully to North American hospitality spaces. Through behind-the-scenes stories and recent real-world projects\, attendees will gain practical strategies for creating story-driven environments that balance creativity\, sustainability\, and business performance—proving that bold design\, when rooted in narrative\, can truly revive and redefine hospitality.
