To me, a building - if it's beautiful - is the love of one man, he's made it out of his love for space, materials, things like that.

Form follows profit is the aesthetic principle of our times.

Warmth isn't what minimalists are thought to have.

But the building's identity resided in the ornament.

It is not the beauty of a building you should look at its the construction of the foundation that will stand the test of time.

I hate vacations. If you can build buildings, why sit on the beach?

A city building, you experience when you walk a suburban building, you experience when you drive.

Every building is a prototype. No two are alike.

The loftier the building, the deeper must the foundation be laid.

I love building spaces: architecture, furniture, all of it, probably more than fashion. The development procedure is more tactile. It's about space and form and it's something you can share with other people.
