KENZO SS17 – "Music Is My Mistress"

What is your ideal office? 

A space that can transform with me. It’s important to me that all the materials in my studio can be moved easily and that the space is adaptable. My space is mostly free of any work — current or previous. A blank canvas. At some point, a large open-plane hanger style / industrial building will be great. Reverting to warehouse living with my creative family at some point will be interesting in this new chapter of my life. For now, I’m enjoying the juxtaposition of Parisian architecture with my industrial / DIY approach to furniture and also work style. 

Have you ever been to a psychic?

It was… insightful.

Can you recall a time you experienced déjà vu?

I love an AH-HA moment. They happen often. 

What word would you use to describe yourself?

I’m not sure. I’ve been told I’m five people in one. In one word, contradictory.

If someone looked in your trash can right now, what’s the weirdest thing they would find?

Nothing weird, just a lot of useless packaging.

How do you find balance?

I walk or think alone. 

If there were anyone from history you could have dinner with, who?

David Bowie. 

What draws you to a person?

Their mindset. How they carry themselves in a room even if that means being the quietest. 

What’s lacking in your industry?

— normal people.
