"Architecture is really about well-being. I think that people want to feel good in a space … On the one hand it’s about shelter, but it’s also about pleasure."

"A great building must begin with the immeasurable, must go through measurable means when it is being designed, and in the end must be unmeasured."

"A profound design process eventually makes the patron, the architect, and every occasional visitor in the building a slightly better human being."
