Favourite quote: “The best engineer a few decades ago was someone who could create the most beautiful beam or structure; today it’s to do a structure you cannot see or understand how its done. It disappears and you can talk only about colour, symbols and light. It’s an aesthetic of miracle”. – Jean Nouvel
