Good education is so important. We do need to look at the way people are taught. It not just about qualifications to get a job. It's about being educated.

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.'

With products the form is almost the finished piece, but with architecture it is not.

When I taught, all my best students were women.

The world is looking more and more segmented, the difference between people is becoming greater.

One has to strive for a very open liberal society.

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