I thought that merging fashion design and open data could be a cool idea as a business.


Becoming my own client has changed me fundamentally as a designer.


Lesson 1. Everyday is user research.


Lesson 2. Fashion Design and Interaction Design share the same values: People centered.


Lesson 3. Keep a strong vision. Listen, ask for advice, but you need to lead.


Lesson 4. Mistakes are inevitable. Make them gracefully.


Lesson 5. Risk is gain.


Lesson 6. Be prepared to grow fast.


Lesson 7. Surround yourself with smarter people than you are.


Lesson 8. Change often.


Lesson 9. Customer service is 80%.


Lesson 10. Design research happens on the street.
