“Architecture is a ride - a physical ride and an intellectual ride.” — Antoine Predock Quote

“Architecture is a ride - a physical ride and an intellectual ride.”

“The connection to place, to the land, the wind, the sun, stars, the moon... it sounds romantic, but it's true - the visceral experience of motion, of moving through time on some amazing machine - a few cars touch on it, but not too many compared to motorcycles. I always felt that any motorcycle journey was special.”

“I try to understand place on a deeper level than just the physical or environmental aspects. It includes cultural and intellectual forces, too. It's an inclusive approach that brings in many disciplines and sees place as a dynamic thing.”

“Architecture is unnecessarily difficult. It's very tough.”

“My private work is touched by this destiny of understanding that architecture and engineering have a social character and can serve the community.”

“I've never left China. My family's been there for 600 years. But my architecture is not consciously Chinese in any sense. I'm a western architect.”
