The ultimate goal of the architect...is to create a paradise. Every house, every product of architecture... should be a fruit of our endeavour to build an earthly paradise for people.

Our time is so specialised that we have people who know more and more or less and less.

In almost every task involving form, there are dozens, often hundreds of contradictory elements, which need to be forced to work in harmony by man's will. This harmony can be acheived only through art.

Modern architecture does not mean the use of immature new materials; the main thing is to refine materials in a more human direction.

Architecture belongs to culture, not to civilization.

We should work for simple, good, undecorated things

God created paper for the purpose of drawing architecture on it. Everything else is at least for me an abuse of paper.
