Italian - Architect Born: September 14, 1937

With the author

Architecture is a very dangerous job. If a writer makes a bad book, eh, people don't read it. But if you make bad architecture, you impose ugliness on a place for a hundred years.

Renzo Piano

I don't want to be romantic, but one of the most important things is to have happy buildings... it's like having a family with a lot of children.

Renzo Piano

When you design a building, you start from a general philosophy, and you come down, and you start from detail and come up. Only the theoretical architect believes that you can make the concept and then sometime, somebody will come to build it.

Renzo Piano

In some way, people believe that if you are permeable, if you are a good listener, you don't have the quality of somebody with a firm attitude. This is what, fundamentally, I got from my mother.

Renzo Piano

You have to accept as an architect to be exposed to criticism. Architecture should not rely on full harmony.

Renzo Piano

I don't like the idea that the first preparation when you start to design your building has to put your label. I think this is not fair. It's not fair to the building or to the people, to the client, because every building tells a different story.

Renzo Piano

As an architect, you have to provide a shelter to enjoy art. And you have to love art. It's like when you make a concert hall. You must love music. This is the reason why you make the space, to enjoy music - making a space for art is the same thing.

Renzo Piano

In a way I spend my entire life stealing from everything - from the past, from cities I love, from where I grew up - grabbing things, taking not only from architecture but from Italy, art, writing, poetry, music.

A house is a machine for living in.

Le Corbusier

They can do without architecture who have no olives nor wines in the cellar.

Henry David Thoreau

I like things that are kind of eclectic, when one thing doesn't go with another. That's why I love Rome. The town itself is that way. It's where Fascist architecture meets classic Renaissance, where the ancient bangs up against the contemporary. It has a touch of everything. That's my style, and that's what my work is about.

Giambattista Valli

Yes, my children are fascinated by design of technology and computers. And I am very happy with that. Today design is a wide world; it doesn't have to be interiors or architecture. It could be anything.

Sussanne Khan

To me, form doesn't always follow function. Form has a life of its own, and at times, it may be the motivating force in design. When you're dealing with form as a sculptor, you feel that you are quite free in attempting to mould and shape things you want to do, but in architecture, it's much more difficult because it has to have a function.

I. M. Pei

When you look at Japanese traditional architecture, you have to look at Japanese culture and its relationship with nature. You can actually live in a harmonious, close contact with nature - this very unique to Japan.

Tadao Ando

Every market we go to, we have a domain-specific language. Every domain-specific language, underneath, has an architecture.

Jensen Huang

The show is called 'The Office,' and while it focuses on the people, the architecture of the space is very important.
