What are the top most famous quotes by Thom Mayne?

Here are the top most famous quotes by Thom Mayne.

  • My buildings don't speak in words but by means of their own spaciousness.
  • But I absolutely believe that architecture is a social activity that has to do with some sort of communication or places of interaction, and that to change the environment is to change behaviour.
  • Architecture is involved with the world, but at the same time it has a certain autonomy. This autonomy cannot be explained in terms of traditional logic because the most interesting parts of the work are non-verbal. They operate within the terms of the work, like any art.
  • So at a time in which the media give the public everything it wants and desires, maybe art should adopt a much more aggressive attitude towards the public. I myself am very much inclined to take this position.
  • The huge problem in our society is the enormous ignorance of the ideas that underlie modern art.
