DESIGN

 | What made you interested in design? I guess it's in my genes. My mother is a visual merchandiser, art lover, painter and my father is a jurnalist. I'm in between these professions. |
 | What has been your professional career path? It has been a bumpy road, but hopefully it will get better, soon. |

 | What are your sources for documentation and to generate ideas? The whole world surrounding me generates ideas. Also books, movies, music, art, graphic design, photography.
Every time I start working on a new project, I see the world from a different perspective. It feels like the Universe narrows down to the concept I'm working on. |
 | What is your favourite type of customer? One that appreciates design as much as I do. |
 | To a certain point, is copying justifiable? For learning purposes only. Never to call it your own. |
 | Which software applications do you most utilize in your work? Photoshop and Illustrator. |
 | Up to what point do your designs reflect your personality? If I'm proud of it, then it reflects my personality. |
 | If you weren't a designer, what would you be doing? I'd be writing. |
 | At this moment, what would be your dream job or project? Working for professionals with professionals and learning. |
 | Can you see yourself in this field twenty years from now? Yes I can, and I won't be satisfied until I do! |
