My approach to design has always been one of a narrator which in the ends comes to the matter of a more sustainable future in design.
Making a product more sustainable not only regards the manufacturing process : I believe you need a strong storyline to convey a sense of attachment and emotion to the tangible product. We need to refocus the space we allow to trends placing the designer as a service provider to the consumer, resulting in its product’s physical obsolescence and moral obsolescence.
It does not matter if it is something you use or something you wear; good design should make your life easier without compromising the search for individuality. In that sense, I have always regarded the work of Eileen Gray, Eva Zeisel, Alexander Lee McQueen, and Vivienne Westwood as pillars of my upbringing as a designer.
