My Work Is Not About "form Follows

Here, Then, Is What I Wanted To Tell You Of My Architecture. I Created It With Courage And Idealism, But Also With An Awareness Of The Fact That What Is Important Is Life, Friends And Attempting To Make This Unjust World A Better Place In Which To Live.

It Is Not The Right Angle That Attracts Me, Nor The Straight Line, Hard And Inflexible, Created By Man. What Attracts Me Is The Free And Sensual Curve - The Curve That I Find In The Mountains Of My Country, In The Sinuous Course Of Its Rivers, In The Body Of The Beloved Woman.

I Search For Surprise In My Architecture. A Work Of Art Should Cause The Emotion Of Newness.

When Students Leave College, They Are Like Children Who Know Nothing About The Problems Of Life, And Don't Have A Political Stance.

I Pick Up My Pen. It Flows. A Building Appears. There It Is. There Is Nothing More To Say.
