Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.

I think my best skill as an architect is the achievement of hand-to-eye coordination. I am able to transfer a sketch into a model into the building.

Helen D. Hume (2010)

The Pritzker Architecture Prize (1989)

[ Brancusi ] has had more influence on my work than most architects.
