My bedroom is my sanctuary. It's like a refuge, and it's where I do a fair amount of designing - at least conceptually, if not literally.

My buildings should have an emotional core - a space which, in itself, has an emotional nice feeling.

Consider your house from an aesthetic point of view.

I don't think that architecture is only about shelter, is only about a very simple enclosure. It should be able to excite you, to calm you, to make you think.

For me, my home is a peaceful place where I can rest, and it gives me back energy.

I think for me, home needs to be a sanctuary. I need to feel like I've escaped the day when I get home.

My apartment reflects my views as an architect. It is minimal, austere. The architecture doesn't impose itself upon you. The apartment is a stage for other things to take place.

Every decorative piece in this house is my feeling, my choice.

I feel that my environment reflects my belief in the grace and art and elegance of living simply.

My house feels like a proper home. It's very relaxed with a hippyish vibe.
