Most of our designs are developed long before there is a practical possibility of carrying them out. I do that on purpose and have done it all my life. I do it when I am interested in something.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I design something, I think of it as a gift to somebody else.
Every day, I think of designs, but I don't write them down, and I forget. If only I had an office.
I've been designing my own pieces for a long time. My mother's a jewelry designer, so we knew at some point we were going to do a line and dive into the fashion world.
If you have to design something, choose things that we need as opposed to frivolous things that we might just want for a month or two for bragging rights.
The point is that I don't design stuff for myself. I'm a toolmaker. I design things that other people want to use.
I love designing, and I still do it.
I remember someone once said there is a practical aspect to my designs, and I remember thinking, 'That doesn't sound so creative,' but that is actually the truth. There is a practicality to it. I don't design just to design. There is a reason and, hopefully, an interesting reason behind it - that is where my creativity comes in.
I discovered at an early age that all I've ever wanted to do is design.
I am aware of changes gradually taking place in my own designs as part of my thinking on this matter.
Once I've designed something, I immediately move on to the next thing.
