Architecture is the fixed stage for human events.
I'm interested in the in-between spaces, the places where things come together.
I'm very suspicious of the word 'style'. It's a word that people use to categorize things when they don't understand them.
The only way to do great work is to love what you do.
The architect must be a storyteller.
The only way to do great work is to love what you do.
Innovation in architecture comes from questioning the obvious.
Good design is about solving problems, not just making things look nice.
We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print. It gave us more freedom. We lived in the gaps between the stories.
Hope is not a feeling; it is a doable thing.
The story you believe is the one that will control you.
The past is always changing. Every time we remember something, we alter it slightly, until eventually, our memories become stories we tell ourselves.
The beauty of poetry: that it says what cannot be said.
The story is not in the words; it's in the struggle.
We all want to be told stories, and we all want to tell stories. It's one of the things that makes us human.
The world is so unpredictable. Things happen suddenly, unexpectedly. We want to feel we are in control of our own existence. In some ways we are, in some ways we're not. We are ruled by the forces of chance and coincidence.
You think it will never happen to you, that it cannot happen to you, that you are the only person in the world to whom none of these things will ever happen, and then, one by one, they all begin to happen to you, in the same way they happen to everyone else.
O valor das coisas não está no tempo que elas duram, mas na intensidade com que acontecem. Por isso existem momentos inesquecíveis, coisas inexplicáveis e pessoas incomparáveis.
