Chris always takes three essential items when he travels – a pencil, notepad and a camera!  So wherever he is – walking in an English Garden in Kent, gazing at the azure blue sea in the South of France or soaking up the hustle and bustle of the New York streets – Chris is continuously making notes and seeking out new inspirations and ideas that can influence his future designs.
