"How to feel the place and inform the architecture through an understanding of the site, and the culture, and so on. I think a part of the issue of mega-scale, and livability, and gardens in the air and so on, that began with Habitat, for me, understanding a place and creating a unique design to that particular place." "I think that my project, Habitat, was a design that grew out of critique for Le Corbusier's early years. My slogan was 'for everyone a garden', you know...
