Architecture begins when you place two bricks carefully together.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.
I am an architect, first.
The first thing that an architect must do is to sense that every building you build is a world of its own, and that this world of its own serves an institution.
One of the most persistent yet elusive dreams of the Modern Movement in architecture has been prefabrication: industrially made structures that can be assembled at a building site.
Architecture doesn't come from theory. You don't think your way through a building.
When you design a building, you start from a general philosophy, and you come down, and you start from detail and come up. Only the theoretical architect believes that you can make the concept and then sometime, somebody will come to build it.
In other words, each piece of the building must look as though it was designed for that particular building.
Architecture is the beginning of something because it's - if you're not involved in first principles, if you're not involved in the absolute, the beginning of that generative process, it's cake decoration.
Architecture begins where engineering ends.
Architecture is invention.
