Designs of purely arbitrary nature cannot be expected to last long.

Inconsistency itself breeds vitality.

We live in a world where great incompatibles co-exist: the human scale and the superhuman scale, stability and mobility, permanence and change, identity and anonymity, comprehensibility and universality.

Technological considerations are of great importance to architecture and cities in the informational society.

Architects today tend to depreciate themselves, to regard themselves as no more than just ordinary citizens without the power to reform the future.

In architecture, the demand was no longer for box-like forms, but for buildings that have something to say to the human emotions.
