The job of the designer is to make things understandable, usable, accessible, enjoyable... important to a public, that involves the public.

Your work gets destroyed by dumb people and it gets enhanced by smart people and it really doesn't have anything to do with marketing.

Your name is Windows. Why are you a flag?

We become different people and we adapt to our environments, but that doesn't have anything to do with being creative.

I wasn't a very good illustrator so I became a designer.

I don't want being a woman to be a factor, or being short to bea factor, or being Jewish to be a factor, or anything that makes you outside some design "norm"that I don't understand anyway. That makes me nervous.

My fear is that when you become an expert in anything then the expectation somehow makes you ordinary, in a way, because you become the firm that does that, or you become the person that does that. You really need to change the form to make the discovery.
