What are your hopes for the way forward for structure?
As know-how evolves, structure follows technological developments and loses a certain quantity of human expression, which is unhappy. I’d say that China has extra creativity generally—much less limitations and extra alternatives for younger Chinese language architects to discover, and to be concerned in discussions about world points. I’d say that structure is a really thrilling but in addition very tough occupation. I really feel that how a lot you’ll be able to obtain could be very a lot associated to how a lot you consider. That’s [the thing that is] very enticing about this occupation, that you may flip folks’s goals into one thing that’s bodily.
I believe sooner or later, structure will focus extra on human emotion. That features how we see the world we’re residing in, which is, in fact, is nature,—the sky, the universe, the air, the sunshine round us. It is going to be extra a couple of deeper or totally different understanding in regards to the surroundings we’re residing in and the fantastic thing about life. That’s the way forward for structure.
