1. My design heroine is Mother Nature. We can’t beat the extraordinary complexity of colour, form and material observed in the natural world.
2. The design rule I promote is to understand the way simplicity involves complexity. It takes time and refinement to create perfect simplicity, be it in furniture or an interior.
3. My small luxury is Bose headphones. Music while I work is essential.
4. Jasper Morrison’s shop in London is one I love visiting for the selection of well-designed objects – homeware, tableware, furniture and design books I don’t see elsewhere.
