Anyone with a computer and a design program can create a page layout. But unless you're trained in design, it won't look very good and it won't communicate very well.

People who can focus, get things done. People who can prioritize, get the right things done.

Artists change how we see the world - and that can have value in the way people do business.

My role is to find strategic insights as to where design can have the most business impact. A designer can bring a viewpoint of not just aesthetics, but economics and usage.

With regard to what is designed really well, I think people are the best-designed objects in the world. Seriously.

I don't like creating software anymore. It's too exact. It's like karate; there's no room for error.

Design is a solution to a problem. Art is a question to a problem.
