idéias sobre arquitetura

"The word architecture has a number of meanings. For example, it is a subject, practice, and a certain type of object and space, typically the building and the city . . . I consider each of these definitions but focus on another: architecture is a certain type of object and space used. Within the term ‘use’ I include the full range of ways in which buildings and cities are experienced, such as habit, distraction and appropriation."

Jonathan Hill, Actions of Architecture, p. 2.

"There is so much in architecture that has to do with the creation of opinion as opposed to the creation of the thing, the making the thing. Making the thing and commenting on the thing are very much about developing a meaning of the thing that lasts."

Eric Owen Moss, SCI-Arc Mission Statement
