Architecture is invention.

My architecture is easy to understand. And enjoy. I hope it also is hard to forget.

The architect's role is to fight for a better world, where he can produce an architecture that serves everyone and not just a group of privileged people.

What attracts me are free and sensual curves. The curves we find in mountains, in the waves of the sea, in the body of the woman we love.

I am a Brazilian before I am an architect. I cannot separate the two.

Life is more important than architecture.

Architecture will always express the technical and social progress of the country in which it is carried out. If we wish to give it the human content that it lacks, we must participate in the political struggle.
