Interview with Amin Einakian

According to the engineering background all the design process should be clear and planned. From the first step (a clear question) to the last step (final presentation) everything should be clear and touchable. Although there are some concept solutions in the design process, the design should be practical at some point.

Although Design is my passion, it is also a tool for me to help others as much as I can in my way.

Design projects which is which have a story behind them. They are usually beyond styling.

My favorite design is a mobile shop. The goal of this project is solving some economical problems.

It depends on the kind of projects they ask for.

I usually value a designer who has a prospect of the future in his designs more. And I think this is important for companies to survive in future.

My design process begins with a simple question, continues with research and finding the restrictions, ideation to find the most simple solution, sketching and ends with final presentation.

to be honest.

I think the most important skill for a designer is how to present his/her work.

I usually use pen and paper, Cs Photoshop, 3ds MAX, Rhino and Alias during my design.

I usually have a time table for all of my designs.

It depends on the product that I design. IT can be a day, week or month.
