That's my job. To imagine harder than you can.

The hardest part of the show is saying goodbye when it's all done. It really breaks you.

I'm opening a store at the end of the month in the New York meatpacking district. I'm launching a line of bedding this summer, and I am writing a book that will be out next January.

I'm so used to talk-show hosts just giving you a sound bite and not really being interested.

That was always my frustration with so many of these shows, because design is not an ambush... it's a relationship. You have to know how people move and live and work to be able to design for them.

Oprah has this intense curiosity that I haven't found with any interviewer.

So, to really execute design in its highest form and making people feel joy, that's a great reward.
