Likes
A sea of brown and gold at the MCG on Grand Final day; Puccini; ‘la famiglia’ (the family)

Greed, fear, mendacity

Last book that I read
Don Watson’s ‘American Journeys’

Yo-Yo MA’s ‘Obrigado BRAZIL’

My last supper would be
a local dish in Tuscany with friends, washed down by a bottle of brunello

4WD owner
Yes, before I knew any better!!

Best design I've seen lately
Citroen C6

Worst design I've seen lately
our crowded public transport system

In my spare time
I read, walk, talk, laugh, and dream

I love design because
It brings out the beauty in the world and saves the planet’s resources

If I ruled the world
We’d see the world through colours: red for passion, yellow for possibilities, blue for clarity, green for growth.
