In future there will be no more designers. The designers of the future will be the personal coach, the gym trainer, the diet consultant.

I try to rediscover why that object exists at all, and why one should take the trouble to reconsider It. I don't consider the technical or commercial parameters so much as the desire for a dream that humans have attempted to project onto an object.

The best everyday example of relativity, the finest symptom of human intelligence, is humor. (...) Design without humor is not human. The word 'beautiful' does not mean anything. Only coherence counts. An object, design or not, is primarily an object that meets the parameters of human intelligence, which reconciles opposites. The lack of humor is the definition of vulgarity.

Everywhere, I'm looking to reach elegance and intelligence.

My idea is to bring happiness, respect, vision, poetry, surrealism and magic [to design].

Everything I do is a symbol. Everything, has a meaning.

For me, luxury is intelligence and quality. I don't see a lot of intelligence and quality in luxury when it's used to make fast, big money.
