I suppose I'm trying to build an architecture that's as timeless as possible, although we're all creatures of our age.

~ David Chipperfield

The difference between good and bad architecture is the time you spend on it.

~ David Chipperfield

Seeing architecture differently from the way you see the rest of life is a bit weird. I believe one should be consistent in all that one does, from the books you read to the way you bring up your children. Everything you do is connected.

~ David Chipperfield

Architecture has curled up in a ball and it's about itself. It has found itself either as a freakshow, where you're not sure if it's good or bad but at least it's interesting, or at the behest of forces of commerce.
