My interest in the environment has neither beginning nor end, is a state of mind.

To live a creative life, we must loose our fear of being wrong.
Design begins and ends with its relation to persons: the ethical core of design lies in the relation of reciprocity established in any act of human making. A perception about the frailty, resilience, and dependence upon things of persons is projected into an artifact that can reciprocally answer these needs (as the pain of standing is relieved by constructing a chair). Design - in no matter what form - is nothing more (or less) than the self-conscious elaboration and exploration of this fundamental relationship. The problem with this exploration is that, turned into a quasi-autonomous activity( or worse, into a profession), design forgets its ontological roots. The work of design ethics is to bring back design to these origins - and to think about the consequences of so doing.
