In Italy, there are so many significant architectural structures in history such as the Pantheon in Rome, or the Duomo.

I think that capitalism has just gone too far. And it is actually not limited to the United States. The excesses of capitalism is making us suffer all over the world right now.

We borrow from nature the space upon which we build.

When I design buildings, I think of the overall composition, much as the parts of a body would fit together. On top of that, I think about how people will approach the building and experience that space.

All those involved in the construction of an architectural design, from the architect to the builder, have an attachment to the architecture, although it's difficult to quantify the attachment.

As long as you have an objective in your mind you are young.

My objective is to design a space that nobody else can come up with while using the material that anyone can use.
