I like transparency. I love to have views throughout the house. — © Marcel Wanders
I like transparency. I love to have views throughout the house.
If you're a guest [at my $113 million house], you'll be able to call up on screens throughout the house almost any image you like - presidential portraits, reproductions of High Renaissance paintings, pictures of sunsets, airplanes, skiers in the Andes, a rare French stamp, the Beatles in 1965.
For me, coming to a fashion house and bringing my love and respect to it - and, hopefully, earning the love and respect of the house - is the only way to do it. I think of it as my own house in that sense as well. So I like not working from a blank piece of paper. I like that there's something from the past, some kind of identity that I have to work with. There are these good ghosts around, these good energies that kind of reinforce what you do.
While transparency reduces corruption, good governance goes beyond transparency in achieving openness. Openness means involving the stakeholders in decision-making process. Transparency is the right to information while openness is the right to participation.
In terms of beautiful views while eating, I love Babington House in Somerset looking onto beautiful lake, beds, hills and forest.
The problem with industrial food is zero transparency. The system thrives on the fact that there is no transparency.
Transparency is not about restoring trust in institutions. Transparency is the politics of managing mistrust.
Transparency in government also includes transparency in health care and hospitals.
Views of women, on one side, as inwardly directed toward home and family and notions of men, on the other, as outwardly striving toward fame and fortune have resounded throughout literature and in the texts of history, biology, and psychology until they seem uncontestable. Such dichotomous views defy the complexities of individuals and stifle the potential for people to reveal different dimensions of themselves in various settings.
There's a transparency revolution sweeping the world. The more you can have transparency of payments, the more you'll be able to follow the money and the more you'll be able to see that payments for mineral rights in poor countries actually go to the people who need it, and don't get put into a kleptocrat's pocket. Transparency is terribly important for us.
The single most important ingredient in the recipe for success is transparency because transparency builds trust.
I've always been in favor of drastic transparency, radical transparency.
The Office of Congressional Ethics was created to provide more transparency in the House of Representatives. It was a commendable goal.
Issues such as transparency often boil down to which side of - pick a number - 40 you're on. Under 40, and transparency is generally considered a good thing for society. Over 40, and one generally chooses privacy over transparency. On every side of this issue, hypocrisy abounds.

Anyone who's tuned in to the House of Commons TV coverage knows the benches are often empty. I like that. I'm a big fan of political transparency. It's good for us to know which debates the MPs consider important enough to show up for, and which not.
I typically go for a more classic aesthetic, though I like to contrast that with bold statement pieces throughout my house.
