“ Life is architecture and architecture is the mirror of life. ”
Great artists need great clients.
~ I.m. Pei
I believe that architecture is a pragmatic art. To become art it must be built on a foundation of necessity.
Contemporary architects tend to impose modernity on something. There is a certain concern for history but it’s not very deep. I understand that time has changed, we have evolved. But I don’t want to forget the beginning. A lasting architecture has to have roots.
Architecture is the very mirror of life. You only have to cast your eyes on buildings to feel the presence of the past, the spirit of a place; they are the reflection of society.
