Art Is About People. I

I Can't Just Decide Myself What's Being Built. Someone Decides What They Want, Then I Work For Them.

Art Is About People. I Think The Discussion About Whether Architecture Is Art Or Not Is Lamebrain.

I Think People Care. If Not, Why Do So Many People Spend Money Going On Vacations To See Architecture? They Go To The Parthenon, To Chartres, To The Sydney Opera House. They Go To Bilbao... Something Compels Them, And Yet We Live Surrounded By Everything But Great Architecture.

When I Was A Kid, My Father Didn't Really Have Much Hope For Me. He Thought I Was A Dreamer; He Didn't Think I Would Amount To Anything. My Mother Also.

I Didn't Have Any Interest In Doing Rich People's Homes. I Still Don't.
