For his eponymous line, block printed textiles, utensils and clothing, designer John Robshaw travels to India to find inspiration, work with local artisans and production monitoring. "I will be a character in the lives of people with whom I work," he says. "I go to their weddings, their steady." I develop relationships with people who teach me. "If you look at my textiles, it has been tour with me like you in the world."
"I try always fruit provider if I travel." In the Philippines, I tried durian, record materials is, and I really liked it. Thailand has great fruits such as longan, star fruit and mango. Every country seems to have its own kind of mango; Thai mangoes are my favorites. "I have a sweet tooth, but I'm a sucker for sticky rice and mango with coconut milk."
"I travel to Asia for at least three months a year." It can be difficult to stay healthy, but I am a pig, so I eat everything. "I'm sick not worry you too much about."
"I visited the houses of the local weavers in Fergana where I all tried their homemade bread, olives and cheese."
