What I do is the opposite of building walls. I build bridges. A bridge is something that connects instead of separating.

I would like to be an artist who works in a very closed ambience.

Valencia is a pure Mediterranean city; it is a city like Naples or Palermo, like Rome a little bit. Walking in the old town has a little bit of the flavor of the old city of Rome.

A railway station is something that can generate a city.

I did not want to do stereotypical buildings.

A bridge is born of necessity, but it must establish its own identity. It should harmonize with its surroundings, and the design must transcend the purely local and transform the setting.

Architecture, like dance, is also a language - one that everybody understands.

For the first project I did in North America, I was asked as an artist, not as an architect, to collaborate on a big development in the heart of Toronto. I was working with other artists and was in charge of giving form to a street, and I proposed a galleria.

If I was not born in this lifetime in New York, certainly in a previous life, I was a New Yorker.
