People kind of tend to mystify design and architecture by suggesting you need to train.

I never buy magazines, I never even buy books.

So if I want to buy a light in a shop and I don't find a light that I like, I think to myself what would I like? What would I like to buy? Then I started to imagine and design it for myself a lot of the time.

I do feel that the world is entering into a period of the incredible period of reflection and introspection. A lot of people are questioning the future, and I can't help but think that's a positive thing. I'm not sure about the art world, but the design world may be able to offer some solutions. Design is about troubleshooting. As a designer, I ultimately feel like a gun for hire. Companies hire me because they've got a problem. That's kind of what it boils down to. And I think this is a moment in our history where we need different solutions.

If you can just be yourself, then you have to be original because there's no one like you.

I have a lot of objects in my space, little things, reminders, memories.

I was sort of open to do anything, I was free.
