„Die Ruine ist das emblematischste Beispiel einer offenen Form, indem sie unbestimmt ist und die Zeit thematisiert.“
„The preservation of the essence, of the manificent spatial structure, is the reason why the Zurich Main Station, which dates back to 1871, has remained a popular urban space to this day.“
„Während heute das Hauptaugenmerk der Agglomeration der grossen Ballungsräume gewidmet wird, werden die Kleinstädte im ländlichen Raum erst jetzt erwachsen und gestehen sich ihr „Stadtsein“ ein“.
