I really love Miami, but I don't think the architecture matches the city. It's a bit too commercial.

I have been interested in fashion since I was a kid. Then I lived in London, where it was more about costume and a personal statement of who you are than about fashion.

I don't think that architecture is only about shelter, is only about a very simple enclosure. It should be able to excite you, to calm you, to make you think.

I am sure that as a woman I can do a very good skyscraper.

I can't focus when there's too many things around. Whenever I used to go to the office, I used to always say, 'Tidy up.'

Half of architecture students are women, and you see respected, established female architects all the time.

There are 360 degrees, so why stick to one?
