A designer’s statement for me is like a personal voice, and I believe good design comes with one’s own personality in it. I think design is first meant to be a gift for oneself, a voice from one’s heart, and then it is meant to create community with others. It speaks with a group voice or thoughts or needs and makes another new idea, new design — a virtual circle.
