“To be a global designer is to be constantly educating yourself.

It’s to approach your work with the curiosity of a traveler and a researcher. When you are designing a space, you have to explore how the people who live there eat, worship, celebrate, and live.

You have to completely immerse yourself in the culture. This will make you a more tolerant human and a more layered designer.”
