Architecture is measured against the past; you build in the future, and you try to imagine the future.

The only way forward, if we are going to improve the quality of the environment, is to get everybody involved.

My architecture tends to be legible, light and flexible. You can read it. You look at a building, and you can see how it is constructed. I put the structure outside.

Architecture is about public space held by buildings.

Form follows profit is the aesthetic principle of our times.

Most buildings, whether they're Gothic cathedrals or Romanesque ones, were high tech for their time.
