What I do isn't radical. It's just distinct in small ways.

Tension is an interesting quality - and architecture must have it. There should be elements of the inexplicable, the mysterious, and the poetic in something that is perfectly rational.

When you have rules to abide by, does that curtail you as a designer, or set you free? People think of classical architecture visually, but I think the brilliant part of it is actually spatial.

When everything is perfectly orderly and understandable, there has to be one thing that puts everything into question.

I remember, as a young architect, people always talked about I. M. Pei's concrete. He had a particular specification no one else knew.

I was brought up to reuse things.

The secret of good architecture is having more than meets the eye.
