A friend of mine's cousin asked me a few questions for an art project.
Thought it would be interesting to post the questions.
What is your favourite term of
abuse or your favourite expletive?
Fuck. Usually
because of a design.
Do you have a creative or business
muse?
I’m a big fan of my fellow contemporary
jewellers. We kind of encourage each
other.
Are there things you would have
done differently?
Many, but then I’d have to kill you.
Who in the world would you most
like to have a drink with?
Jane Alexander
What advice would you give to
emerging designers?
Always have a plan B, with every design and job.
What's your favourite gadget?
My iPad and the drawing application I recently
downloaded.
What's one thing that you haven't
done that you would still really like to do?
Just travel for a while. Go somewhere I’ve never
been.
What’s the first thing you think of
when we say insanity?
My dear friend, Lauren. That girl entertains me…
What are you passionate about?
Jewellery! My
friends and family are very important to me. As are the headaches they give me.
Do you still have a love for
design?
It’s going to take a lot to kill mine.
What are you doing currently?
Designing an entire new range for summer. Working on one or two little things for
friends and family.
What do you do with failed
projects?
Make a feature from a fuckup. Put it to the side. In a while, relook at it, redesign and
rethink and maybe cannibalise some of the ideas for other designs.
