Architecture of the Spirit

“Modern architecture knows how to erect industrial shacks, but it does not succeed in building either a palace or a temple.

This century will leave behind only the tire-tracks of the transports it employed in the service of our most sordid greed.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila

“Possibly the most dangerous weakness in the architectural profession today is the failure of the profession to have a legitimate, shared, canon of value, one which resides in the deep feelings of ordinary people, and which resonates with their experience.”
Christopher Alexander
