The inspiration of decay

It's no secret that I have a fierce attraction to, and find a huge amount of inspiration from, the obscure, the tattered, the vintage, the often overlooked decay of everyday items.  I notice the odd characteristics of banal things like the common areas of wear and tear on luggage, or how the handles of leather bags begin to form an inimitable patina from years of use.  However odd it may seem, it continues to manifest and transform into an indescribable inspiration when I begin to design a new item.  Colors, trends, seasons - they will always be the mainstays of inspiration - for the masses.  I find a secret pleasure in knowing that it is the often-overlooked that truly delivers for me.
