“Artists to my mind are the real architects of change, and not the political legislators who implement change after the fact.”
William S. Burroughs
“If you're not 100 per cent familiar with the territory, this can be a very good idea. An architect or a surveyor will know the industry, and be able to talk the same language as the builders. Even if it's 10 per cent of the total cost of the project, it can be money extremely well spent when it comes to securing your own peace of mind.”
Chris Blyth
“That tower's an extremely important building, ... It's not just a high-rise in any town done by any architect, but it's a very specific tower ... which mirrors the aspirations of the sky of New York.”
Daniel Libeskind
“Fortunately, we were not in the construction phase and were able to have the architects make significant changes ... to upgrade the foundation, for instance, ... It was all done in the planning phase.”
Robert Seidman
“I think that there is room obviously for many architects to work on this site. It's not going to be done just by one architect,”
“That's something the architect should have known. Someone was negligent in not seeing that it was done properly in the first place.”
Bernie Turner
“The architect was good at little details to make the library not look like a warehouse.”
