For Me Beauty Is Valued More Than

My Architecture Is Easy To Understand. And Enjoy. I Hope It Also Is Hard To Forget.

Of Course, I Have Given My Engineers Some Headaches Over The Years, But They Go With Me. I Have Always Wanted My Buildings To Be As Light As Possible, To Touch The Ground Gently, To Swoop And Soar, And To Surprise.

It Is Not The Right Angle That Attracts Me, Nor The Straight Line, Hard And Inflexible, Created By Man. What Attracts Me Is The Free And Sensual Curve - The Curve That I Find In The Mountains Of My Country, In The Sinuous Course Of Its Rivers, In The Body Of The Beloved Woman.

What Attracts Me Are Free And Sensual Curves. The Curves We Find In Mountains, In The Waves Of The Sea, In The Body Of The Woman We Love.

Curves Are The Essence Of My Work Because They Are The Essence Of Brazil, Pure And Simple.
