A Builder Is Like A Little God

My Inspiration Came From The Land, ... And, Of Course, From Paul Klee . . . And The Poetics Of His Paintings.

I Dont Remember A Single Thing In My Childhood That Was Not Related In Some Way To Building.

Architecture Is Art. I Don't Think You Should Say That Too Much, But It Is Art. I Mean, Architecture Is Many, Many Things. Architecture Is Science, Is Technology, Is Geography, Is Typography, Is Anthropology, Is Sociology, Is Art, Is History. You Know All This Comes Together. Architecture Is A Kind Of Bouillabaisse, An Incredible Bouillabaisse. And, By The Way, Architecture Is Also A Very Polluted Art In The Sense That It's Polluted By Life, And By The Complexity Of Things.

Light Has Not Just Intensity, But Also A Vibration, Which Is Capable Of Roughening A Smooth Material, Of Giving A Three-dimensional Quality To A Flat Surface.

You Have To Accept As An Architect To Be Exposed To Criticism. Architecture Should Not Rely On Full Harmony
