Residence that resembles a very small forest
Junya Ishigami
All rooms are passages of light.
Yoko Ono in: The Other Rooms
Intuition is a very powerful thing — more powerful than intellect, in my opinion.
Steve Jobs
Architecture, sculpture and painting are specifically dependent on space, bound to the necessity of controlling space, each by its own appropriate means. The essential thing that will be said here is that the release of esthetic emotion is a special function of space.
Le Corbusier
What you see depends on where you stand.
C.S. Lewis

I believe in an ›emotional architecture‹. It is very important for humankind that architecture should move by its beauty; if there are many equally valid technical solutions to a problem, the one which offers the user a message of beauty and emotion, that one is architecture.

What I have sought to achieve is a spatiality that stimulates the human spirit, awakens the sensitivity and communicates with the deeper soul.
