A Museum Is A Place

A Piazza Is Not A Plaza. The Plaza Is The Theme Park Of The Piazza; The Plaza Is The Commercial Version. A Piazza Is An Empty Space With No Function. This Is What Europeans Understand.

Architects Have To Dream, We Have To Search For Our Atlantises, To Be Explorers, Adventurers, And Yet To Build Responsibly And Well.

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.

Architecture Is Art, But Art Vastly Contaminated By Many Other Things. Contaminated In The Best Sense Of The Word – Fed, Fertilised By Many Things.
