The Rule Is The Worst Thing. You

My Ambition Has Always Been To Reduce A Building's Support To A Minimum. The More We Diminish Supporting Structures, The More Audacious And Important The Architecture Is. That Has Been My Life's Work.

I Have Always Accepted And Respected All Other Schools Of Architecture, From The Chill And Elemental Structures Of Mies Van Der Rohe To The Imagination And Delirium Of Gaudi. I Must Design What Pleases Me In A Way That Is Naturally Linked To My Roots And The Country Of My Origin.

My Work Is Not About "form Follows Function," But "form Follows Beauty" Or, Even Better, "form Follows Feminine."

I Think Of Myself As No More Than 60. What I Could Do At 60, I Can Still Do Now.

Surprise Is Key In All Art.
