Shoe designer Paul Andrew has loved art and architecture since he was a child, however the patience required to design a building led him to pursue a medium with a faster creative pace. "My thoughts shifted to fashion, specifically footwear design, where the craft of making a shoe is so similar to that of considering a building: ingenuity in balancing weight, shape, form, and function," he told Ac Magazine. Creatives who inspire Andrew most range from architects Rem Koolhaas, Le Corbusier, Tadao Ando, and Zaha Hadid to artists Richard Serra, Jean Arp, Anish Kapoor, John Chamberlain, Michael Heizer, and James Brown. "My New York Apartment looks out onto 8 Spruce by Frank Ghery, whose work I particularly love. A genius of deconstructivist style."
