There is no reason to design buildings that are more basic and rectilinear, because with concrete you can cover almost any space.

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

The artistic capability of reinforced concrete is so fantastic - that is the way to go.

My work is not about "form follows function," but "form follows beauty" or, even better, "form follows feminine."

I enter my studio at 9 a.m. I have lunch here, I return right away to my work and I go out to dinner at 8 p.m. My daily tasks vary very much.

The rule is the worst thing. You just want to break it.

It is not the right angle that attracts me, nor the straight line, hard and inflexible, created by man. What attracts me is the free and sensual curve - the curve that I find in the mountains of my country, in the sinuous course of its rivers, in the body of the beloved woman.
