What I try to do is the art of building, and the art of building is the art of construction; it is not only about forms and shapes and images.

I create art. It's kinda abstract.

In art or architecture your project is only done when you say it's done. If you want to rip it apart at the eleventh hour and start all over again, you never finish. I was one of those crazy creatures.

I am finally getting the chance to build large structures and break preconceptions that my designs are just sculptures for people to be in. But my work always comes down to the human scale.

I recognize that it is through the engagement with my craft - by recognizing an idea and drawing it out, building physical models, collaborating with experts, constructing the sculptures at urban scale, and maintaining them through years of weather and interaction with the public - that a new art for cities has become real.

When I am true to my inspiration, even fight for my design, the project always turns out well.

Architecture is inhabited sculpture.

I got so I was really just sick of sculpture.
