The dreams of the 1960s began to disappear in the 1970s. The economy collapsed, and so did the optimism of the Metabolists.

I am trying to counter the fixity of architectures, their stolidity, with elements that give an ineffable immaterial quality.

Architects have made architecture too complex. We need to simplify it and use a language that everyone can understand.

I will never fix my architectural style and never be satisfied with my works.

I would like to use architecture to create bonds between people who live in cities, and even use it to recover the communities that used to exist in every single city.

We have to base architecture on the environment.
