Dave Perillo Interview


First and foremost I really like the work that Dave Perillo does because just like he did, I grew up off of cartoons, so I can relate to what his mindset is like. I feel like I have seen his art somewhere whether it was a cartoon, in a magazine, or just in a book. One of the things that caught my attention the most was when he said everyone should be different when creating because if we were not different the world would have a million Garfields. I already knew to be different, but the way he put it he made it seem as though every character you create whether you like it or not has something that is unique about it that makes it stand out from the others, and I really liked when he said that.

In my opinion Rethinking the way we sit down was a very interesting, informational, and funny video. His passion was airplanes, but sense he began to find it unromantic he transitioned into designing chairs, and took the knowledge he knew about designing airplanes and placed it in the chair department. I found it amazing how he took the information of how the body works, and placed that information in the creation of the his chair. He made it so that people did not need to make a manual adjustment to the chair to fit there personal needs. He continued after many failures so that it can adjust to the human body automatically, and also be comfortable at the same time.
