Living in America is like living in England in the seventies before Terrence Conran and all the graphic designers made everything look the same.

In the UK it’s hard to find to something that’s not had the hand of the graphic designer passed over it, whereas in America, it’s still seen as an option. And though it makes England seem very considered and polished, it also makes it seem very sterile. There’s so little of our vernacular language left, it’s hard to imagine how much texture it must have given us.
