best design tip:
Create memorable spaces, give your concept a name, tell a story - constraints inform the design, limitations encourage creativity, every detail is worth discovering, no detail is too small.
favorite pattern:
Patterns from nature – concentric webs, dried mud, faceted bubbles, hexagonal beehives, leaf skeletons + sand ripples
best advice:
Hard work pays off – diligence, passion, and vigor create strong results.
hidden talent:
Alchemist, inventor + diplomat
