The nuclear family doesn't work. It's very destructive; it grew out of selfishness.

Architecture doesn't come from theory. You don't think your way through a building.

My parents suffered from that ideal of a perfect nuclear family. They found that a difficult pressure, I think.

Nobody has ever before asked the nuclear family to live all by itself in a box the way we do. With no relatives, no support, we've put it in an impossible situation.

I don't think you necessarily have to be part of a traditional nuclear family to be a good mother.

I got into this little habit of architecture and building. I designed a house in Colorado and one in Hawaii. The idea is supposed to be build and sell - but then I can never bring myself to sell them.

Most people no longer live in nuclear families at all.

I try to create homes, not houses.

I don't believe in morality in architecture.
