記憶をなくしては、確固たる「現在」を築くことは不可能であると私は信じています。しかし、現代を生きている我々は過去を模倣することの平凡さを避けなければなりません。 人間の歴史は異なった文化を持った人々の交流を通して展開してきました。従って現代建築の課題とは、人々を分け隔てるものではなく、人々を結びつけるものを作ることであると考えています。人と人との肯定的なつながりである「愛」は、世界の進化を支えるものとなり得ると信じています。これは建築にとって特に重要な事実です。異なったものが触れ合うだけではなく、愛し合う時にこそ新たな言語が生み出されます。瞑想的な空間の中で生きたいという方のために、歴史や世界に対する私の観点を表現した家をデザインします。 私の家は現代の生き方を見つめ直し、簡素で美的な新しい住み方を求めます。そして、私の家ではものや家具よりも、太陽、雨、風、音という環境要素との相互作用の方が重要です。つまり私の観点から言えば、現代の家は単なる「ものの集まり」であってはならないのです。
