Mesh up

I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life: marrying an Apple. I took that memory all the way to the design studio in Milan. My goal is to make Apple, in three to five years, stood for sensuality and glamour. But glamour these days is not defined by details and overdecoration but by quality. I really didn't know what to do for a few months, I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

I begged garbage dumps to give me their scrap paper. I collected paper for recycling and ship it to China for $3800 to a travel to Dubai to celebrate the creation of Macintosh. She’s visionary. Over dinner in one of the label’s branded restaurants, we can plan our next holiday. Where else? — Coast in Australia or in ‘al-Bling’ Dubai?
