I Think Of Myself As No More

Life Is Very Fleeting. It’s Important To Be Gentle And Optimistic. We Look Behind And Think What We’ve Done In This Life Has Been Good. It Was Simple; It Was Modest. Everyone Creates Their Own Story And Moves On. That’s It. I Don’t Feel Particularly Important. What We Create Is Not Important. We’re Very Insignificant.

Life Is More Important Than Architecture.

For Me Beauty Is Valued More Than Anything - The Beauty That Is Manifest In A Curved Line Or In An Act Of Creativity.

When I Was Very Little My Mother Said I Used To Draw In The Air With My Fingers. I Needed A Pencil. Once I Could Hold One, I Have Drawn Every Day Since.

I Had Some Good Opportunities. I Was Lucky To Have Had The Chance To Do Things Differently. Architecture Is About Surprise.
