Going back to Simone, here are some of the things i’ve learned about him.
- On picking brands to tie up – Simone likes to work with iconic brands but accepting projects are not base all about money. According to him, there are projects that brings alot of money and there are projects which are not and accepted all out of love.
- Inspirations and Characters – Inspiration for each of the characters varies but most of the time, inspirations comes from the crowd. According to Simone, some of the characters he created are base on people he knew, one of which is the girl inside a little flower which represents her little daughter.
- Dreams and Craziest Collaboration – One of his dreams is to do a collab with an airline company, he wanted his creation to fly along with the plane. Aside from that when asked about the craziest collab he was offered, it was to create characters for sex toys. Which he then refuses.
