Architects and Construction: Talks

Architects talk about architecture...

“I like to say that there's no such thing as talent in architecture. There's only culture and hard work. Imagine there are ten different ways to cross a bridge, for example; there are those who don't even know two of them but want to invent an eleventh way. Lack of culture is the disease of the century.”

“The architect's first action will not be to build in their mind, but to demolish. The initial pleasure, like that of a child dismantling their toy, will be to break down knowledge, rules, and the art of construction into pieces.”

“…if a person is a bad architect, they will replace architecture with technology.”
