Look, architecture has a lot of places to hide behind, a lot of excuses. "The client made me do this." "The city made me do this." "Oh, the budget." I don't believe that anymore.

Man, there's another freedom out there, and it comes from somewhere else, and that somewhere else is the place I'm interested in.

Many people put a green button on their collar and feel good, just like a lot of people put an American flag on their lapels and feel patriotic. It's not enough.I'm not dismissing it.

You see a lot of so-called architecture that part of the ego trip overpowers the functionality and the budget and all that stuff.

Computers allow architects to remain parental instead of being marginalized by the contractors and managers.

Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.

I am just relating to the world we live in. I see some order in it, even though it looks like mush.
