I take the museum space also as sacred in a sense.

I don't believe architecture has to speak too much. It should remain silent and let nature in the guise of sunlight and wind

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

We borrow from nature the space upon which we build.

If I can create some space that people haven't experienced before and if it stays with them or gives them a dream for the future, that's the kind of structure I seek to create.

My objective is to design a space that nobody else can come up with while using the material that anyone can use.

In all my works, light is an important controlling factor.

If you give people nothingness, they can ponder what can be achieved from that nothingness.

It wasn't that I had any great dream of being an architect. I just wanted to make things. Whether it was furniture, painting, interior design, or architecture. I just wanted to create something.

You can't really say what is beautiful about a place, but the image of the place will remain vividly with you.

As long as you have an objective in your mind you are young.

If you really want it, then you'll make your dream happen.

you are the builder of your future, the creator of your destiny. Therefore, do not swerve from the path of truth........

The purpose of dreaming isn't to dream forever, but to wake up from it.

The art of life lies in a constant readjustment to our surroundings.

Develop your leaders into a competitive advantage. Reconnect your leader-power to success.

Human relations are built on feeling, not on reason or knowledge. And feeling is not an exact science; like all spiritual qualities, it has the vagueness of greatness about it.

Scientists still know less about what attracts men than they do about what attracts mosquitoes.

I do not believe that the Good Lord plays dice.

I love being part of an ensemble.
