Hi Michael! What do you say to the fact that; I was in 1987, came up with the original design of logos - which later became the emblem of companies such as Hyundai, Lexus, Mazda!?

and what do you say about the fact that several companies (including company Hyundai) copy of the original single design - prototype sports car invented by me in 2005? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=279267168823404&set=a.101414929941963.1106.100002203680645&type=3&theater

And yet, what do you think - this is just my fiction or truth - that a few full-time designers (qualified design) in 1990 used car design ideas - ideas invented not educated Russian teenager (me)?https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=703598819723568&set=o.22893372268&type=1&theater&notif_t=like

James Biber has practiced architecture in a multi-disciplinary environment for more than 25 years. His work centers on a belief that architecture as an expression of identity is inseparable from its language of form and tectonics. The result is an architecture tied closely to its context; whether physical, cultural or metaphorical. He has a new creative studio which comes after nearly two decades as the architectural partner in Pentagram’s New York office. His work has been recognized by the AIA, AIGA, SEGD and other professional design organizations, and has been published in The New York Times, Architectural Record, The Wall Street Journal, Architect, Blueprint, Wallpaper, Dwell, Metropolitan Home, New York Magazine and the design press internationally.
