Endings are like, I always say, like a women's pregnancy. When she has a child, she is happy to have the child, but there is a thing called postpartu….

Architecture is definitely a political act..

I am very different as a parent to new kids. My work changed from being rooted in the sky to being rooted in the earth..

If you want to show a picture, just show it - don't spend too much time arranging it..

The world is too full of information..

I am immersed in architecture all day, working in my office or teaching..

The problem with digital architecture is that an algorithm can produce endless variations, so an architect has many choices..

I don't know how to use appliances. I mean, I use the coffee maker. But that's it..

You cannot live with guilt..

I don't believe that classical architecture is enough to engage people anymore. They say: 'So what else is new?'.

I truly believe that the great heroes that create the history of architecture are people who take risks and write to tell about it..

The more centralized the power, the less compromises need to be made in architecture..

I am not a finisher, I am a starter. And I am always thinking, what is the next project..

Architects design houses. I live in a home..
