You really have to have a goal.

I like music. Country, hip-hop, R&B, sometimes classical.

I think about architecture all the time. That's the problem. But I've always been like that. I dream it sometimes.

Women are always told, 'You're not going to make it, its too difficult, you can't do that, don't enter this competition, you'll never win it,' - they need confidence in themselves and people around them to help them to get on.

I have always appreciated those who dare to experiment with materials and proportions.

In terms of form, all the projects interest me equally, although there are obviously large differences according to the scale and process of each project.

Architecture is really about well-being. I think that people want to feel good in a space... On the one hand it's about shelter, but it's also about pleasure. The intention is to really carve out of a city civic spaces and the more it is accessible to a much larger mass in public and it's about people enjoying that space. That makes life that much better. If you think about housing, education, whether schools and hospitals, these are all very interesting projects because in the way you interpret this special experience.
