No architecture is so haughty as that which is simple.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Architects have made architecture too complex. We need to simplify it and use a language that everyone can understand.
Architecture is art, nothing else.
I think all good architecture should challenge you, make you start asking questions. You don't have to understand it. You may not like it. That's OK.
Architecture is invention.
It's my goal to make a building as immaterial as possible. Architecture is a very material thing. It takes a lot of resources, so why not eliminate what you don't need as long as you're able to achieve the same result?
Architecture is the will of an epoch translated into space. Living, Changing, New. Not yesterday, not tomorrow, only today can be given form. Only such architecture is creative.
In addressing a task, one almost always has several possible options, sometimes only a few, and they may all be practical and functional. But they lack the aesthetic aspect that raises it to architecture.
I have no requirements for a style of architecture.
I don't know why I've always been so captivated by architecture.
Architecture is unnecessarily difficult. It's very tough.
