Recognizing the need is the primary condition for design.
I design for real people. I think of our customers all the time. There is no virtue whatsoever in creating clothing or accessories that are not practical.
Good buildings come from good people, ad all problems are solved by good design.
Color does not add a pleasant quality to design - it reinforces it.
Luck is the residue of design.
Delay always breeds danger and to protract a great design is often to ruin it.
Perhaps believing in good design is like believing in God, it makes you an optimist.
Design works if it's authentic, inspired, and has a clear point of view. It can't be a collection of input.
Sacred spaces can be created in any environment.
Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal While others, on the contrary, obtain a victory by exerting, at the last moment, more vigorous efforts than ever before.
Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones.
It is only after years of preparation that the young artist should touch color - not color used descriptively, that is, but as a means of personal expression.
The urge for good design is the same as the urge to go on living.
Designers are very fickle. I never wanted to be a victim of that. You're in one minute, out the next.
I don't design clothes, I design dreams.
I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves.
Many things difficult to design prove easy to performance.
Sometimes I can't figure designers out. It's as if they flunked human anatomy.
A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
The artist in me cries out for design.
