PROUST QUESTIONNAIRE – PEOPLE OF DESIGN VERSION!

I admired a friend who worked in graphics; I really liked watching her work. As per talents in writing, the interest came by itself, almost by magic.

I have no rules but ingredients that, in my opinion, can never be missing:
PASSION,
TRUST,
GRATITUDE.
What project launched your career?
The complex work of international branding and communication of CIFF,
China International Furniture Fair.
Any music playing while you work?
Nah… it distracts me!
Do you work in PJs or three-piece suits?
