高科技建筑先驅(qū)

未來不是我們進(jìn)入的某物。未來是我們創(chuàng)造的某物。
A building is not just a place to be, but a way to see.

The architect must be a prophet... a prophet in the true sense of the term... if he can't see at least ten years ahead don't call him an architect.

Innovation is driven by the refusal to accept limitations.
創(chuàng)新源于拒絕接受限制。
The best architecture comes from a synthesis of all the elements that separately comprise a building: the structure that holds it up; the services that allow it to function; the ecology of the building - its relationship to the surroundings; the quality of natural light; the symbolism of the form; the relationship of the building to the skyline.
最好的建筑來自于所有單獨(dú)構(gòu)成建筑的元素綜合：支撐它的結(jié)構(gòu)；使其運(yùn)作的服務(wù)；建筑的生態(tài) - 它與周圍環(huán)境的關(guān)系；自然光的質(zhì)量；形式的象征意義；建筑與天際線的關(guān)系。
Every building is a prototype.
每一座建筑都是一個(gè)原型。
Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
設(shè)計(jì)不僅僅是外觀和感覺。設(shè)計(jì)是它如何運(yùn)作。
The city is the ultimate expression of our civilization.
城市是我們文明的終極表達(dá)。
Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.
建筑應(yīng)該訴說它的時(shí)代和地點(diǎn)，但渴望永恒。
