As an architect, you have to provide a shelter to enjoy art. And you have to love art. It's like when you make a concert hall. You must love music. This is the reason why you make the space, to enjoy music - making a space for art is the same thing.
Space, space: architects always talk about space! But creating a space is not automatically doing architecture. With the same space, you can make a masterpiece or cause a disaster.
Where you record is very important. It can't be too nice, it can't be too expensive, it can't have a view to an ocean or a field.
I don't believe in having spaces in the home that don't get used. We pay so much for square footage that to waste it is criminal.
My apartment reflects my views as an architect. It is minimal, austere. The architecture doesn't impose itself upon you. The apartment is a stage for other things to take place.
Architects create spaces that accommodate human activity. As opposed to many of its contemporary counterparts, Dune'is not so much focused on the styling of that activity, as on the supporting of it.
I never did care much for the upholstery of office.
My house is not James Bondish at all. Sorry.
