To me, sketches are methods of communication but mainly modeling blueprints for myself to translate ideas three-dimensionally on the spot. A designer’s final proposal should not be two-dimensional. I sketch until the construction plan for my design is clear. While working on numerous projects, shifting roles between designer and modeler, I learned there are many ways of creating different surfaces with the same line and even if a car consists of the same graphical elements, the results can be very different depending on the characteristics of that surface. Justifying the characteristics of a surface through precise planning is extremely important and this role should not be restricted only to the modeler. A good designer must be effective during all stages of design – from sketch ideation, 2-D rendering, and 3-D interpretation. The design process must be managed in relation to the designer’s intentions.

The result is always three-dimensional.
