But To Me, To Be Original Is

One Of The Great Things About Design Is That It's Truly International. No One In The Design Industry Would Say, "this Country Is Mine," Or "i Will Make It Look This Way Because It's For An American Market And That Way For A Chinese Market." If You Look At All Of The Apple Products, They Are The Same Everywhere . . . I Mean, I Can't Deny That I Love Traveling. It's A Very Healthy Thing To Be Able To Appreciate Other Cultures - Or At Least Witness Them Firsthand. And All Of That Goes Into Helping Someone Be A Good Designer, Because It's An International Business.

I'm Always Working. Like A Lot Of Creative People I Can't Switch Off. I Can't Disassociate Work From Pleasure. My Job Is My Hobby.

In Japan, Australia, And England There Is Such A Strong Youth Culture.

I'd Love To Be Approached To Do Ordinary Things More.

I Do Feel That The World Is Entering Into A Period Of The Incredible Period Of Reflection And Introspection. A Lot Of People Are Questioning The Future, And I Can't Help But Think That's A Positive Thing. I'm Not Sure About The Art World, But The Design World May Be Able To Offer Some Solutions. Design Is About Troubleshooting. As A Designer, I Ultimately Feel Like A Gun For Hire. Companies Hire Me Because They've Got A Problem. That's Kind Of What It Boils Down To. And I Think This Is A Moment In Our History Where We Need Different Solutions.
