What are your design inspirations?

I’ve collected a wellspring of inspirations over the years that live in my mind and manifest themselves given the right project. Like a sponge, I tend to soak up design, art, film, music, pop culture, etc. and combine those references to create new things. I love mixing low brow pop culture like The Price is Right game show with high brow art like Donald Judd sculptures. That combination feels right to me somehow.
