Text Quotes
Good design, like good painting, cooking, architecture or whatever you like, is a manifestation of the capacity of the human spirit to transcend its limitations  (Architecture Quotes) Let us today seek to find that place within each of us where dreams are made, where our highest aspirations take shape. Let us confirm the power of our humanity by giving architecture and substance to the dreams we have for our nation, so that the promised land of social and economic justice that is within our dreams will soon be within our sight  (Architecture Quotes) One of the great beauties of architecture is that each time, it is like life starting all over again  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture is not based on concrete and steel, and the elements of the soil. It’s based on wonder  (Architecture Quotes) The first gesture of an architect is to draw a perimeter; in other words, to separate the microclimate from the macro space outside. This in itself is a sacred act. Architecture in itself conveys this idea of limiting space. It’s a limit between the finite and the infinite. From this point of view, all architecture is sacred  (Architecture Quotes) The laws of nature are the rules according to which the effects are produced; but there must be a cause which operates according to these rules. The laws of navigation never navigated a ship. The rules of architecture never built a house  (Architecture Quotes) Increased knowledge of heredity means increased power of control over the living thing, and as we come to understand more and more the architecture of the plant or animal we realize what can and what cannot be done towards modification or improvement  (Architecture Quotes) When I see beautiful clothes, I want to keep them, preserve them... Clothes, like architecture and art, reflect an era  (Architecture Quotes) When I am asked what I believe in, I say that I believe in architecture. Architecture is the mother of the arts. I like to believe that architecture connects the present with the past and the tangible with the intangible  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture and architectural freedom are above all a social issue that must be seen from inside a political structure, not from outside it  (Architecture Quotes) I cannot pursue my architecture without considering the minimization of energy consumption, simple and direct technologies, a respect for site, climate, place and culture. Together, these disciplines represent for me a fantastic platform for experimentation and expression. Of particular importance is the junction of the rational and the poetic resulting hopefully in works that resonate and belong to where they reside  (Architecture Quotes) The same way that mid century modern architecture was in the 50s, I want to be as a human being. New. Different. Challenging the old. Function over frivolity. Clean living. Clean lines  (Architecture Quotes) Charleston has something for everyone, rain or shine. Its architecture is unparalleled. Carriage rides are great for seeing the city and hearing the history behind certain houses and the area  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture is a hazardous mixture of omnipotence and impotence. It is by definition a c h a o t I c a d v e n t u r e... In other words, the utopian enterprise  (Architecture Quotes) In this branch of utopian real estate, architecture is no longer the art of designing buildings so much as the brutal skyward extrusion of whatever site the developer has managed to assemble  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture is art, but art vastly contaminated by many other things. Contaminated in the best sense of the word – fed, fertilised by many things  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture is art. I don’t think you should say that too much, but it is art. I mean, architecture is many, many things. Architecture is science, is technology, is geography, is typography, is anthropology, is sociology, is art, is history. You know all this comes together. Architecture is a kind of bouillabaisse, an incredible bouillabaisse. And, by the way, architecture is also a very polluted art in the sense that it’s polluted by life, and by the complexity of things  (Architecture Quotes) The purpose of architecture is to shelter and enhance man’s life on earth and to fulfill his belief in the nobility of his existence  (Architecture Quotes) What you newspaper and magazine writers, who work in rabbit time, don’t understand is that the practice of architecture has to be measured in elephant time  (Architecture Quotes) The ultimate aim of all artistic activity is building!... Architects, sculptors, painters, we must all get back to craft!... The artist is a heightened manifestation of the craftsman... Let us form... a new guild of craftsmen without the class divisions that set out to raise an arrogant barrier between craftsmen and artists!... Let us together create the new building of the future which will be all in one: architecture and sculpture and painting  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture does not change anything. It’s always on the side of the wealthy. The important thing is to believe that it can make life better  (Architecture Quotes) I think architecture becomes interesting when it has a double character, that is, when it is as simple as possible but, at the same time as complex as possible  (Architecture Quotes) Authentic architecture is not the incarnation of the spirit of the age but of the spirit, full stop  (Architecture Quotes) In fact, the public will accept any city plan and skyline provided that its architecture is traditional  (Architecture Quotes) When circumstances defy order, order should bend or break: anomalies and uncertainties give validity to architecture  (Architecture Quotes) 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  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture is particularly difficult for women; there’s no reason for it to be. I don’t want to blame men or society, but I think it was for a long time, the clients were men, the building industry is all male  (Architecture Quotes) 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  (Architecture Quotes) I’ve said goodbye to the overworked notion that architecture has to save the world  (Architecture Quotes) Architecture has its own realm. It has a special physical relationship with life. I do not think of it primarily as either a message or symbol, but as an envelope and background for life which goes on in and around it, a sensitive container for the rhythm of footsteps on the floor, for the concentration of work, for the silence of sleep  (Architecture Quotes)
