Some Thoughts and Quotes

My job as a designer is to protect the piece.

Greed Control

Everyone wants to be second for design ideas. "Experiment with someone else."

Engineer your life for maximum freedom.

Design is finding a shape for a set of information.

If the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem starts looking like a nail.

Our job is to make physical what's in our heart.
