I always try to think in curves.

To go back to architecture, whats organic about architecture as a field, unlike product design, is this whole issue of holism and of monumentality is really our realm. Like, we have to design things which are coherent as a single object, but also break down into small rooms and have an identity of both the big scale and the small scale.

A very big percentage of small-scale construction is plastic. But its some horrible beige plastic made to look like wood.

The clothes I like are not necessarily tailored.

It's tens of millions of calculations just to design one connection between a piece of structural steel and another piece of structural steel.

I always try to think in curves.

With everything that I design, from a church to a plate to skyscraper to a spoon. I am always thinking about voluptuous volumes and spaces.
