FS: What kinds of works do you like designing most?
AL: I prefer the projects that negotiate new boundaries or question the old ones.
FS: What makes a design successful?
AL: Its application to everyday life: how much it affects our lives, how many people are going to use it and to what extent it will affect them.
FS: When judging a design as good or bad, which aspects do you consider first?
AL: Innovation, function, intelligence and cost in relation to effectiveness.
FS: Where does the design inspiration for your works come from? How do you feed your creativity? What are your sources of inspirations?
AL: My experience from my own daily life or from the other people's lives. New ideas come out from necessities that contemporary life spawns.
