The most important skills a designer should have?
A good pair of eyes and a brain which is good at making random associations.
Who gave you the best lessons?
The best lessons have been in the factory, seeing more and more possibilities of manufacturing is like expanding your vocabulary, it gives you more possibilities of expression.

I think quite a lot.
If you were not a designer, what would you be?
I would fall back on my other favourite pastimes, and become a part-time photographer, cook, cyclist and winemaker.
Best thing you have done so far:
the collective effect is better than the individual pieces I think.

Certainly more chairs, some watches, and whatever else comes along!
