    • Quotes

      Tadao Andô: I'm always asking myself if I'm happy being an architect. Often I think I should be a craftsman because I truly enjoy making things with my hands. As an architect, I can't build a house on my own. I need to give my drawings to carpenters and craftsmen. The moment I give my drawings away, I start to worry because I'm not participating in the process.
