Design is a constant challenge to balance comfort with luxe, the practical with the desirable.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Design can have such a positive impact on the way people live and on their relationships and moods.
When I design, I always pull from things that are significant to me. In my work, I search for happiness and then try to convey that joy in the clothes.
The best design work is really done when you spend more time with people, when you have the opportunity to be of the same mindset and the same incentives as the founder of the business.
In my opinion, no single design is apt to be optimal for everyone.
Buildings designed with careful attention to aesthetics arouse and enlighten their occupants and that promotes their good health.
Good design should be available to everyone - and I do mean everyone. What I spent on the wheelchair I'm in could buy a small Mercedes. It's not only unfair to me; it's unfair to someone who's indigent but has the same needs. My goal is to make all objects affordable.
Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.
Comfort? If a choice has to be made between style and comfort, style wins every time.
The architect should strive continually to simplify; the ensemble of the rooms should then be carefully considered that comfort and utility may go hand in hand with beauty.
