As a designer looking to the future, you don't want to get lost in the archives.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
To design the future effectively, you must first let go of your past.
This is what I like about being a designer: You can't really get it until you see it.
As an architect, you design for the present, with an awareness of the past, for a future which is essentially unknown.
I feel like I have at least begun to make a contribution, but my most significant concern has to do with whether my actual art will be preserved for future generations or be erased.
Time is my biggest luxury. Finding time to do things outside of fashion, which I think for a designer is incredibly important.
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.
I get slightly obsessive about working in archives because you don't know what you're going to find. In fact, you don't know what you're looking for until you find it.
I want to be a designer for my time.
I'm not a designer, I'm a creator.
I think my view is that whenever you project into the future you're never likely to be accurate in the details, or the paraphernalia and style. It's in the spirit of it.
