Architecture is the masterly, correct and magnificent play of masses brought together in light.

It is for this reason that these are beautiful forms, the most beautiful forms. Everybody is agreed to that, the child, the savage and the metaphysician Picture Quote #1
Space and light and order. Those are the things that men need just as much as they need bread or a place to sleep Picture Quote #1

Modern life demands, and is waiting for, a new kind of plan, both for the house and the city Picture Quote #1
The materials of city planning are: sky, space, trees, steel and cement; in that order and that hierarchy Picture Quote #1
Light creates ambience and feel of a place, as well as the expression of a structure Picture Quote #1
You don’t start a revolution by fighting the state but by presenting the solutions Picture Quote #1

Our own epoch is determining, day by day, its own style. Our eyes, unhappily, are unable yet to discern it Picture Quote #1
The mathematical phenomenon always develops out of simple arithmetic, so useful in everyday life, out of numbers, those weapons of the gods: the gods are there, behind the wall, at play with numbers Picture Quote #1
