I Was Sort Of Open To Do

Well, I Never Studied Design And I Went To Art School To Study Art, You Know, Sculpture And Things Like That, And Ended Up Making Things Like Sculpture And Started Making Chairs And Jewelry Together And That's How I Started.

I Made Some Salt And Pepper Shakers A While Back And Waited Three Years For Them To Come.

I Have To Confess That I'm In A Constant State Of Evolution In Terms Of The Way I Feel About It. When I Was Doing Early Pieces, I Wasn't Exactly In Love With The Idea Of Building The Stuff. I Could Do It Because I Had The Skills, But I Really Did It Because I Couldn't Find Anyone Else To Build It For Me.

I Don't Like To Make My Life Like A Book.

Studing Jewelry Gives You An Incredible Technical Background. If You Can Work On Very, Very Small Things, Then, I Think, Typically You Find It Easier To Go Bigger Rather Than The Other Way Around. I Think A Lot Of Architects Have Struggled With Small Things. Whereas If You Start Small, It's Easier To Get Bigger.
