7 . I saw that many of the symbols that you use at PHUCISME are inspired by geometry . Why ? We love geometry - because you can find it everywhere . In nature , architecture , art , in our everyday life - however we love to match it up with organic shapes to break and balance the geometry .
8 . Where do you find inspiration ? I find inspiration everywhere - everything from the people , nature , the streets , my favorite cities , food , music , and even in the local newspaper - and I am always online looking for inspiration and news . I often find the small moments in my everyday life as the most inspiring .
9 . What other projects are you working on ? Just to name a few : New collection for Bolia . com , New products for PHUCISME ’ s portfolio , Street art project in Horsens , a new concept for art festival , consultants for a divergent thinking classes at a primary school and STORMSALEN just got accepted into a major EU project in business model innovation , which means that I have to move my office to Reykjavik for three months this summer .
11 . Do you have some advices for TEKO students ? Allow yourself to make mistakes . Always carry a notebook - write all ideas down - all the great , the bad , and the crazy ones ( those are usually the best ). AND AGAIN !! Know the importance for meeting new people from all over the world - have fun with it - and start to build your network .
LAST TIP FFROM PIA : A lot of the best ideas come from sharing a bottle of wine . Break the rules and follow your gut .

10 . What hobbies do you have ? What do you like to do in your spare time ? I am so lucky that I have made my hobby to my full time job , which means that I am always looking for new inspiration and new ideas . Other than that - I love being with my family and friends . Photography , diving , traveling , cooking , playing computer games , going to flee markets , cycling and so much more .
