It would be very interesting to design objects for everyday life, something where the ideas that are expressed can be launched into society.

I don't like the masculine style, jeans. I like issey miyake... and black dresses.

It is insufficient for architecture today to directly implement an existing building typology; it instead requires architects to carefully examine the whole area with new interventions and programmatic typologies

The conservative values that are emerging, it may not effect architecture immediately but it will effect society and that's what worries me.

The commission process in America and England is different. In America, they do it through an interview process, and it's really based on whether they like you or not. I mean, it's nothing to do with whether you do the best scheme or the worst scheme.

I don't particularly like showing furniture on pedestals, but for whatever reasons you always have to in museums.

It's not my duty as an architect to look at it.
