An attention to the human experience of the space rather than simply the architecture’s

doesn’t come out of the shape.”

in spacial composition.”
"Concerned
with but a tiny part of the infinity that surrounds the earth, and yet each and
every building marks a unique place in that infinity."

use of materials found in the immediate environment to shape the architecture
and create connections between the building and its context. “
Filipo

which is spiritually uplifting”
