I hate vacations. If you can build buildings, why sit on the beach?
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.
Architecture is a visual art, and the buildings speak for themselves.
We build buildings which are terribly restless. And buildings don’t go anywhere. They shouldn’t be restless.
Architecture tends to consume everything else, it has become one’s entire life.
What people want, above all, is order.
The interior of the house personifies the private world the exterior of it is part of the outside world.
We require from buildings two kinds of goodness: first, the doing their practical duty well: then that they be graceful and pleasing in doing it.
