Map asks questions on design inspiration and the environment.

"Your environmental beliefs"
The most environmentally sensitive product is the one that is never produced. If produced, a product must aim for emotional sustainability and social responsibility.
"Tell me about design"
... Design is about discovering tools for the future.
"Words of wisdom"
A designer's job is not to colour between the lines, but to define them.

"Who are your key design influences and why?"

Friends are a constant, while popular designers come and go. At this moment, Konstantin Grcic, Jasper Morrison and Dieter Rams have captured my imagination.
