6/1/1 My Design Philosophy

My design philosophy, to quote the venerable Mies van der Rohe is somewhat "less is more."  I like clean lines, not too much ornamentation, basic shapes.  For example, I like Scandinavian furniture and do not usually like Rococo and Baroque styles which I consider too fussy.

Good Design is design that solves the problem at hand in an economical, efficient and attractive manner.  It respects and fits into the environment it finds itself in.
