3 December 2020 Marc Newson Well, I never studied design and I went to art school to study art, you know, sculpture and things like that, and ended up making things like sculpture and started making chairs and jewelry together and that’s how I started.
3 December 2020 Ralph Bakshi One of the best animated films I’ve seen come out of Disney was the Tarzan movie. I wasn’t crazy about the story or the design on Tarzan’s face, but the traditional animation was spectacular.
3 December 2020 Ed Westwick I think gardens are fantastic, and I’d love to draw and design and stuff like that. I love just planting flowers during the summer. There’s something very humble about it, and natural and beautiful.
3 December 2020 Daniel Libeskind I think there is a new awareness in this 21st century that design is as important to where and how we live as it is for museums, concert halls and civic buildings.
3 December 2020 Jack Nicklaus I’ve wanted to design golf courses ever since I was a kid. I suppose it comes from the way I’ve played the game. To find the proper way to play any hole, I’ve always begun by asking myself what the architect has tried to do with it.
3 December 2020 Marc Newson People kind of tend to mystify design and architecture by suggesting you need to train.
3 December 2020 Giorgio Armani 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.
3 December 2020 Ethan Coen Being non-commercial is never an ambition. Movies come together at different points for fortuitous reasons. You do them as you get the opportunity, as opposed to doing them when you choose to or design to.
3 December 2020 Nicole Richie When we were in the design studio I always was pretending like I was in a closet asking my friend before I step out into the world what do I look like? And everybody wants that honest friend before they go and go to dinner or go to an event.
3 December 2020 Sergio Aragones Sometimes, you start with the drawing and then the gag comes to you in the middle of it. That is when you start working on the solution of the gag, which is composition, placing, equilibrium, and character design.
3 December 2020 John Baldacci There is a lot of interest in the arts, music, theatre, filmmaking, engineering, architecture and software design. I think we have now transitioned the modern-day version of the entrepreneur into the creative economy.
3 December 2020 Jean Cocteau The actual tragedies of life bear no relation to one’s preconceived ideas. In the event, one is always bewildered by their simplicity, their grandeur of design, and by that element of the bizarre which seems inherent in them.
3 December 2020 Fergie Luckily I don’t have to buy shoes anymore, because I design them! I’m off tour, so I can dive in and create the shoes that I want for my line. But okay, I did buy a pair of vintage combat boots because they were so beaten up – I had to have them.
3 December 2020 Joe Jonas I had a faux-hawk for a while and I used to buzz the sides and design it. It was really bad.
3 December 2020 Drew Endy Biological engineering is not necessarily understanding systems but rather, I want to be able to design and build biological systems to perform particular applications.
3 December 2020 Christian Lacroix For me, I am still very happy to be able to do stage design as it’s an opportunity to express the extreme.
3 December 2020 Jane Mayer Well, yes, I mean, I think that, you know, my sources suggest that there’s a lot of support for the notion that there is a lot of Koran abuse and that it was very much a systematic design, not just an aberration.
3 December 2020 Tom Peters Almost all quality improvement comes via simplification of design, manufacturing… layout, processes, and procedures.
3 December 2020 Carson McCullers The mind is like a richly woven tapestry in which the colors are distilled from the experiences of the senses, and the design drawn from the convolutions of the intellect.
3 December 2020 Martin Fleischmann I have had this view of the optimization of the electrode design for a long time. Historically we went through various phases in the work and eventually worked on large sheets – very large sheets – of palladium.
3 December 2020 David Brainerd I have a secret thought from some things I have observed, that God may perhaps design you for some singular service in the world.
3 December 2020 David Crane Looking back, video game design seems a natural fit, although there was no such thing when I was growing up. I built a Tic-Tac-Toe playing machine in my teens which went up in smoke on the night it was scheduled to go to a science fair.
