[one_half][dropcap]M[/dropcap]y mind has to be completely focused on my own illusions. I never look at other people’s work. I have an obsession with details and pattern. It’s really easy to get colors right. It’s really hard to get black – and neutrals – right.
Black is certainly a color but it’s also an illusion. I am convinced that there can be luxury in simplicity. It’s a philosophy of life. A practice. If you do this, something will change, what will change is that you will change.[/one_half]
[one_half_last]Design is a series of creative choices – it’s a collaborative effort, an evolutionary process. I design from instinct. What feels good. What feels right. Working on the details, twisting them and playing with them over the years, but always staying on the same track. I like things simple. I like to be real.
My learning process is by eye alone; it’s not at all scientific. For me, art is about learning and about living with people. It’s alive. Grunge is a hippied romantic version of punk. There is always the new project, the new opportunity. It’s sometimes said that I’m rebellious and I do things to push people’s buttons.[/one_half_last]

[one_half]There is always the new project, the new opportunity. I like the things around me to be beautiful and slightly dreamy, with a feeling of worldliness. Beauty is perfect in its imperfections, so you just have to go with the imperfections. I am not interested in the past, except as the road to the future. You cannot be creative with people around you.
I think the idea of mixing luxury and mass-market fashion is very modern, very now – no one wears head-to-toe designer anymore. Every day I’m thinking about change. I don’t care about money. I really don’t care. I just want to do what I do.
You can only go forward by making mistakes. There are always protests, whether you do something good or bad. It’s sometimes said that I’m rebellious and I do things to push people’s buttons, but I just like the challenge. I still appreciate individuality.
