" - Chris Hadfield " Although we’re architects, we believe we do culture; architecture is culture, and the topics we tackle will always arise a broader debate. " - Ma Yansong " I think the artistic side of architecture was natural to me. My mother was an artist and a poet. " - I. M. Pei " Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions. " - Coco Chanel " I have a huge love for architecture. " - Alison Sudol " The difference between me and a lot of other people is I can feel the effect of light, space, furniture, height, scale, distance, all these micro-environments affect me in a strong way.

" - Giambattista Valli " In ‘Palaces for the People,’ Eric Klinenberg offers a new perspective on what people and places have to do with each other, by looking at the social side of our physical spaces.
