Of course there is a lot of fluidity now between art, architecture and fashion - a lot more cross-pollination in the disciplines, but this isn't about competition, it's about collaboration and what these practices and processes can contribute to one another.

My work first engaged with the early russian avant-garde; the paintings of moholy-nagy, el lissitzky's 'prouns' and naum gabo's sculptures, but in particular with the work of kasimir malevitch - he was an early influence for me as a representative of the modern avant-garde intersection between art and design.

There are so many great galleries and museums in London, but they can be very crowded during the day.

The spirit of adventure to embrace the new and the incredible belief in the power of invention attracted me to the Russian avant-garde.

All the privileged can travel, see different worlds, not everyone can. I think it is important for people to have an interesting locale nearby.

I am sure that as a woman I can do a very good skyscraper.

I really believe in the idea of the future.
