Favorite destination

Guilty pleasure

Never had one
Product of the moment
Recycled chopsticks
Greatest lesson learned
Listening and observing people

Space I love but didn’t design
Four Seasons Restaurant, New York
Hospitality because
The people and its unpredictability

If I weren’t a designer I’d be
A public servant
