I believe that we must understand the economy of the situation.

If you have white walls, human beings look better in a room than if you have red walls.

And exciting buildings are fine periodically.

In this tour around the world I was not interested in contemporary buildings because I had seen contemporary buildings actually until they came out of my ears in a sense.

I feel this is very important for us to have serene buildings because our civilization is chaotic as it is, you see; our whole machine age has brought about a chaos that has to be somehow counterbalanced, I think.

I have been criticized rather strenuously by painters and sculptors for not incorporating their work in our buildings.
