From where do you draw most of your inspiration?
Travel and People. Design is a way of thinking and it can impact your life in ways you didn't realize until you've gone through the experience.
Describe your go-to style:
I don't have a go to style. Each project and each client is so different. The architectural restraints and the client's needs vary from project to project. There is a process but there isn't a formula.
Describe your ideal project:
An open minded client who is willing to trust the process. It takes an incredible amount of energy and effort to make it the process go seamless. Budget is a big factor of what is possible. A client who appreciates the value and the quality of fine workmanship and willing to pay the price.
