Design always has a purpose.

What makes me say "wow" is usually something I haven't encountered, in a new way... something I haven't encountered before or something I have encountered that I see in a new way.

Design is the art of planning, and it is the art of making things possible.

As a painter I make up projects for myself to express myself. And there's no client, there's no direction.

I know that in my own work I'm able to do all kinds of things I never thought I'd be able to do.

If I know something well, it no longer makes me say "wow" even if it's really terrific, even if it's a great iteration of it, because I know it well.

I think that it's a great time to be a designer.
