Interview with Dot 3

Could you please tell us more about your art and design background? What made you become an artist/designer? Have you always wanted to be a designer?
I am an Interior designer by discipline, I loved it actually but I take an interest in many things. I was a maths student in my early years in high school actually and I still remember in year 8, I got a D- from my art teacher. At 17, I knew but was very scared however with a leap of faith and a friend's encouragement I chose. It's really right for me but I probably would have said the same thing if I had ended up being a photographer or a chef something. As long as I get to have ideas I'm good.
What kinds of works do you like designing most?
I like interior, furniture and jewelry. I think in general, something I can realize and touch. For example I don't have the same high when I think about graphics and multimedia.
How do you think the "design field" is evolving? What is the future of design?
Is somebody supposed to really know the answer to the future of design? I don't.
When was your last exhibition and where was it? And when do you want to hold your next exhibition?
I'm painting a lot recently. I'll tell you if I have one. If ever.
Can you talk a little about your design process?
I think, I draw, I get stuck, I leave it, sleep,run walk cook or whatever and start again.
Can you describe a day in your life?
Not really, it changes all the time. The only constant the last few years is either running or meditating.
What is your "golden rule" in design?
None. Wait, maybe this. After about after 3/4 years working as a designer, I noticed that for most projects whatever I'm working on I usually do arrive at a point when I feel it's the right solution. Not think but feel and if I don't get there I usually don't stop.
How can people contact you?
dot3jewelry.com. On most social media @dot3jewelry except on Linkedin. Just Hong Tran or email me at hong.tran@dot3jewelry.com. Do get in touch. Especially if you are a teenager unsure about design and too scared to ask questions, I'll get back to you.
