The life of a designer is a life of fight: fight against the ugliness.

If you can design one thing, you can design everything.

You can say, "I love you," in Helvetica. And you can say it with Helvetica Extra Light if you want to be really fancy. Or you can say it with the Extra Bold if it's really intensive and passionate, you know, and it might work.

You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

Architecture is a survival element for humanity. The practice of Architecture is what gives me a home... a home far from home.

I did not direct my life. I didn't design it. I never made decisions. Things always came up and made them for me. That's what life is.
