In art or architecture your project is only done when you say it's done. If you want to rip it apart at the eleventh hour and start all over again, you never finish. I was one of those crazy creatures.

If you don't remember history accurately, how can you learn?

I loved logic, math, computer programming. I loved systems and logic approaches. And so I just figured architecture is this perfect combination.

You have to let the viewers come away with their own conclusions. If you dictate what they should think, you've lost it.

It's funny, as you live through something you're not aware of it.

I'm as much interested in the form-making as well as getting you to think about what we're doing to the world around us.

Our lives are given meaning by our actions-accomplishments made while we are "here" that extend beyond our own time.
