To design is to understand and to improve.
To find the underlying principle of a problem and then to work out a beautifully simple solution.
My work is pushing what and why, at times at the expense of how, while stretching out of the esoteric, personality-celebrating culture of design.
I hope each of my projects is characterised by properties fitting to the product as an object of certain value, rather than to me as the person who designed it.
