The work needs to have a certain longevity. It lasts longer than we do.

Any work of architecture that has with it some discussion, some polemic, I think is good. It shows that people are interested, people are involved.

I think white is the most wonderful color of all, because within it one can find every color of the rainbow.

We look at each one [project] and consider the context - what it is and what it can be - beyond the strictly functional concerns.

To be an architect has been a life-long dream. Little did I know when asked at the age of 14 'what do you want to do when you grow up?' I said I wanted to be an architect. After 50 years I am still learning all what that means. Working together with so many people has been enormously gratifying. Being an architect means being a member of a fantastic team.

We learn a lot, and each museum ends up having its own distinctive character and personality.

We think about project's public nature and how that can be enhanced, how the spaces we create can enliven the experience of being there.
