"It's the responsibility of design and its patrons to be at the forefron of sustainable change. I'm allergic to the current trend of "green-washing" products by making something sound sustainable without any fundamental difference."

"We need products which help preserve resources and reduce carbon emissions. Design has a strong seductive power and can trigger new behaviour and inspire people if done well. The blue solar cells shimmer like butterfly wings and make electricity out of light. No dirty fuels, no bad fumes. The fusion of sensual beauty with efficiency has inspired my work throughout - our boats and cars are powered and designed by the sun."
