The point of contact between myself and
Poltrona Frau is the respect for tradition, a real
appreciation of quality and craftsmanship, and
a desire to look forward.
Italian craftmanship.
Clearly, there's an English component.
And then, of course, my cultural background is
also blended. So this is an interesting fusion of
all these different cultures.
I gravitated to the Chester family, because
it relates to a piece of furniture that speaks
tradition. And tradition is something I'm
always drawn to in my work, and I'm drawn
to it because I always look at how I can make
tradition evolve and become more modern."
