What motivates you to design in general, why did you become a designer?

Designer.. well, if someone mentioned to me earlier that I will become, next to my interior designing job, a furniture designer, exhibit throughout the world and in the end have my own production, I wouldn't believe that person. New technologies, materials used in design motivate me. The force that pulls you to do more and go further, create something new.

What should young designers do to become a design legend like you?

I find that I am just at the beggining of a designer career process. Young designers have to love what they do, inform themselves of what exhists already in design and follow the work of older designers.

Good design has to be at the same time functional, useful, sustainable, long lasting as well as good looking.
