The only reality of architecture is in the personality of the architect. The architect neither creates nor invents but obeys a profound law of reality and can discover within himself this to the extent that he divests himself of everything in him that is conventional and that is a sentimental habit. Architecture is science humanized and the cause of its decline is separation from science, practice and experience. Architecture must include all the scientific, religious, moral and utilitarian motives which the architect has held in the moment of his creation and to which he has given a form, enriched with a complete humanity. |
