What's your approach to teaching?
I have a very strict rule in teaching: I have no secrets. Apart
from all the technical knowledge I want my students to feel and
understand the nature of the materials that we use, because from my
point of view it is an essential part of the meaningful design
process.
What inspires your own work?
For me, design and execution is an intimate relationship with the
materials I work with. It is a way to get closer to nature and
culture.
