I Am A Brazilian Before I Am

For Me Beauty Is Valued More Than Anything - The Beauty That Is Manifest In A Curved Line Or In An Act Of Creativity.

I Pick Up My Pen. It Flows. A Building Appears. There It Is. There Is Nothing More To Say.

We Need To Feel That Life Is Important; We Need That Fantasy So We Can Live A Little Better.

Architecture Is My Work, And Ive Spent My Whole Life At A Drawing Board, But Life Is More Important Than Architecture. What Matters Is To Improve Human Beings.

Here, Then, Is What I Wanted To Tell You Of My Architecture. I Created It With Courage And Idealism, But Also With An Awareness Of The Fact That What Is Important Is Life, Friends And Attempting To Make This Unjust World A Better Place In Which To Live.
