Quotables
“It’s to find that right balance between the level of quality living you’re providing and reducing the square footage in order to make your project make sense.”
“I think that sharing a good piece of the pie is the way to go if you wanna have a sustainable business.”
“Now, the main thing is who has similar values to mine before I align myself to them. Once the values are aligned and the goals are aligned, things are fairly simple.”
