Design in this digital modern era is very much influenced by so many facets and factors such as market forces, social media, influx of product availability, trends, economic drivers of a project ,manufacturing, construction and information technology, google, pin-interest, instagram and recently AI tech.
The tools that are available to Designers allow concepts to move and develop an idea very fast within the push of the send button.
However where there is great progress there is also chaos and confusion.
These tools and forces can derail or make the success of a final product whether it is a building design, a table or the interior of a private home. A good designer can manage and use these forces and propose a solution, but a great designer will be able to bring about a beautiful and harmonious design that will bring delight to the end users.
A fusion of form, function and elegance.

"Although clients come to me to make something look exclusive-often its a collaborative process, and about what problem we are faced with and how to crack it open with a baseball bat to reveal the gold revalation inside - so it’s the way we approach and the design thinking that really makes a successful project or product."
"I know what its like to invest all your capital in a project, to risk it all on a product that may or may not work. So I always have this in the back of my mind when I'm designing something because we are given a responsibility . We care about the end result which needs to be working on all levels-" Samuel
