Architecture is the starting point for anyone who wants to lead humanity towards a better future.
Le Corbusier
Architecture is a dangerous mixture of absolute power and impotence... Incoherence and accident are what keep all architects alive. They are faced with arbitrary and vague requests and parameters in different countries that they had no part in forming and are expected to provide solutions to existing problems that are insoluble for highly trained brains! By definition, architecture is a chaotic adventure. There is no specific context that creates architecture, but it is an interrelationship of many activities that are integrated in such a way that it cannot be determined.
Rome Koolhaas
In general, art as well as architecture is a reflection of the spiritual condition of man in his time.
Mathias Gorits
Architecture is a different way of seeing, thinking and questioning the world and our place in it.
Tom Mayne
Architecture is the art of making sure our buildings match the way we live: the process of society manifesting itself in the physical world.
Bring on Ingles
Architecture is one of the most powerful works that man can imagine.
Ben Van Berkle and Carolyn Bass
Architecture is the truest expression of values and quotations; The way we build reflects the way we live.
Norman Foster
Architecture is a small piece in this human equation. However, for those of us in this profession, we believe that this profession has the potential to create change, enrich the human experience, break down barriers of misunderstanding, and create a beautiful backdrop for all walks of life.
