I Used To Not Like Being Called

I Will Always Have Two Regrets. I Don't Have A Presence In London, And I Would Have Liked To Have Done More Work In The Middle East.

My Earliest Memory Of Architecture, I Was Perhaps 6 Or 7 Years Old, Was Of My Aunt Building A House In Mosul In The North Of Iraq. The Architect Was A Close Friend Of My Father's And He Used To Come To Our House With The Drawings And Models. I Remember Seeing The Model In Our Living Room And I Think It Triggered Something, As I Was Completely Intrigued By It.

What's Similar Between Britain And America Is The Lack Of Good-quality Civic Buildings.

I Like Music. Country, Hip-hop, R&b, Sometimes Classical.

I Have Been Interested In Fashion Since I Was A Kid. Then I Lived In London, Where It Was More About Costume And A Personal Statement Of Who You Are Than About Fashion.
