“ Authentic architecture is not the incarnation of the spirit of the age but of the spirit, full stop. ”
Viewed from a certain distance and under good light, even an ugly city can look like the promised land.
~ Leon Krier
Cities and landscapes are illustrations of our spiritual and material worth. They not only express our values but give them a tangible reality. They determine the way in which we use or squander our energy, time, and land resources.
The rigidity of a bottle's form does not affect the fluidity of the liquid it contains.
A city is not an accident but the result of coherent visions and aims.
