I Can't Focus When There's

I'm Trying To Discover - Invent, I Suppose - An Architecture, And Forms Of Urban Planning, That Do Something Of The Same Thing In A Contemporary Way. I Started Out Trying To Create Buildings That Would Sparkle Like Isolated Jewels; Now I Want Them To Connect, To Form A New Kind Of Landscape, To Flow Together With Contemporary Cities And The Lives Of Their Peoples.

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.

It Is Insufficient For Architecture Today To Directly Implement An Existing Building Typology; It Instead Requires Architects To Carefully Examine The Whole Area With New Interventions And Programmatic Typologies

I Always Thought I Was Powerful, Since I Was A Kid.

One Has To Strive For A Very Open Liberal Society.
