I think the best architecture comes from a synthesis of all the elements that separately comprise a building: the structure that holds it up; the services that allow it to function; its ecology; the quality of natural light; the symbolism of the form; the relationship of the building to the skyline or the streetscape; and, perhaps most importantly, the client's vision and the user's needs.
我认为最好的建筑来自于所有单独构成建筑的元素综合:支撑它的结构;使其运转的服务;它的生态;自然光的质量;形式的象征意义;建筑与天际线或街景的关系;也许最重要的是,客户的愿景和用户的需求。
