Adam Simha/MKS Design

How many pairs of shoes/glasses do you own?
Two glasses. And eight pairs of shoes.

Think of something else ICFF can stand for.
I Can’t Fall Far.

If you could build a piece of furniture out of any material in the world, what would it be?
Matzoh.

What is the desktop picture on your computer?
A close-up of nasty-smelling epoxy that I left outside my shop and it collected dust and debris all winter.

Do you sketch with a particular kind of pen or notebook?
Whatever I can reach because the sketch will disappear if I don’t.

When did you know you wanted to be a designer?
Let’s say 1995. I was making stuff, I was enjoying making stuff from inert parts long before I started making furniture and objects. I was thirteen and I was hacking up guitars, and then I was making ice cream and bread.

If you weren’t a designer, what would you be?
Oh man. Toughie. God. I love this. This is like my absolute favorite thing. So that question is more of a nightmare scenario, so it’s kind of hard to think about.

What is your least favorite color?
I think I have an answer… Oh, the hospital purple, you know the hospital wall purple.

Do you have a hero?
My son.
