  • Likewise 'radical'. I'm only radical because the architectural profession has got lost. Architects are such a dull lot - and they're so convinced that they matter.

  • Technology is the answer, but what was the question?

  • C.P. Office sees its particular product (buildings) as the readily recognisable parts of its continuous design process.

  • Architecture must concern itself continually with the socially beneficial distortion of the environment.

  • Architecture is too slow in its realisation to be a 'problem solver'.

  • A greater awareness in architects and planners of their real value to society could, at the present, result in that rare occurrence, namely, the improvement of the quality of life as a result of architectural endeavour.

  • Architecture should have little to do with problem solving - rather it should create desirable conditions and opportunities hitherto thought impossible.

  • Like medicine (architecture) must move from the curative to the preventive.
