I search for surprise in my architecture. A work of art should cause the emotion of newness.

Surprise is key in all art.

It was the drawing that led me to architecture, the search for light and astonishing forms.

Architecture is invention.

It is not with architecture that one can disseminate any political ideology.

Architecture is my work, and I've spent my whole life at a drawing board, but life is more important than architecture. What matters is to improve human beings.
