sound boring
I'm not against beauty, it just sounds boring to me.
perspective appreciated moments
Perspective is a moment in time that cannot be fully appreciated until that moment has passed.
communication thinking skills
What is said determines who listens and who understands. Graphic design is a language, but graphic designers are so busy worrying about the nuances - accents, punctuation and so on - that they spend little time thinking about what the words add up to. I’m interested in using our communication skills to change the way things are.
matter language speak
No matter what your cultural sophistication or what language you speak, everyone can understand images.
ideas style ifs
If you don't have an idea, all you have is style.
people giving information
Pictures are so good at giving people information that they're not looking for.
thinking artist dresses
Think like an artist. Dress like an insurance salesman.
successful knowing perfect
The perfect state of creative bliss is having power (you are 50) and knowing nothing (you are 9). This assures an interesting and successful outcome.
real issues design
Design is just language and the real issue is what you use that language to do.
differences design great-design
The difference between good design and great design is INTELLIGENCE
always-trying down-and looks
I'm always trying to turn things upside down and see if they look any better.
smarter
You'll never go wrong when you work with someone smarter than you.
imperfection insanity flying
I am interested in imperfections, quirkiness, insanity, unpredictability. That's what we really pay attention to anyway. We don't talk about planes flying; we talk about them crashing.
hate design one-love
When you make something no one hates, no one loves it.
