The Creator's Words
"I believe it is possible to see all of my work as a sequence of investigations into the spatial interchange between public and private realms. This interchange expresses itself in varying conceptions, but is always related in some way to a notion of architectural promenade. Finally, and again, mine is an attempt to find and redefine a sense of order, to understand, then, a relationship between what has been and what can be, to extract from our culture both the timeless and the topical."
— Richard Meier. from Eliot Noyes. On Architecture: Lecture by Richard Meier. p.30, 33.
