Marcus Orton, an innovation director who currently works in a company located very closely to my university where I study. He was invited for a career presentation and I found that he is a stunning guy with the prefect career which I have always dreamt about.
He studying art in foundation but the reason how he went into design was because of a design hero and also the one which I adore, Ettore Sottsass.

"Ettore Sottsass, an éminence grise of postmodern design who helped found the influential Memphis Group and was responsible for the familiar bright red plastic Olivetti typewriter."
(http://www.nytimes.com)
He, perhaps is one of the most respectable guys which has always been in my mind for. And, perhaps he is my design hero of all time.
“Every color has a history. Red is the color of the Communist flag, the color that makes a surgeon move faster and the color of passion.” Ettore Sottsass - my design hero of all time
