Architecture Is How The Person Places Herself

I Find Industrial Cities Exciting. I Like Their Toughness.

Two Years Ago I Focused On One Apartment To See How Many Variations You Can Come Up With In A Given Space With The Same Parameters. I Would Work On This Repeatedly For Days And You See That There Is Maybe Seven Hundred Options For One Space. This Exercise Gives You An Idea Of The Degree At Which You Can Interpret The Organization Of Space, It Is Not Infinite But It's Very Large.

It Was Such A Depressing Time. I Didn't Look Very Depressed, Maybe, But It Was Really Dire. I Made A Conscious Decision Not To Stop, But It Could Have Gone The Other Way.

Architecture Is Unnecessarily Difficult. It's Very Tough.

I've Always Been Interested In Combining Architecture With A Social Agenda, And I Really Think You Can Invest And Be Inventive With Hospitals And Housing.
