If you said to me, 'Lie down on that concrete floor and fall asleep,' I could do it. I can sleep anywhere at any time of day on any surface.

Every breath we take as human beings damages the planet.

I admire anyone that follows the road less travelled.

Awesome is loud but awe is quiet.

The thing that I champion is sustainability. My terror is that suddenly we see it as a luxury, not an essential. That's a danger.

The greatest architectural illusion is not Baroque fancy or Victorian flamboyant, but minimalism.

Sustainability is now a big baggy sack in which people throw all kinds of old ideas, hot air and dodgy activities in order to be able to greenwash their products and feel good.
