I think there is a new awareness in this 21st century that design is as important to where and how we live as it is for museums, concert halls and civic buildings.

What is design? It's where you stand with a foot in two worlds - the world of technology and the world of people and human purposes - and you try to bring the two together.

Design is people.

A designer is only as good as the star who wears her clothes.

The design of each element should be thought out in order to be easy to make and easy to repair.
