"If you focus on design, you can call yourself a designer. If you focus on the implementation of your design, you can call yourself an architect."
"Design is about creating spaces for people to enjoy and of course, creating moments where you elevate the spirit, but 'design for good' is figuring out a program that not only creates better spaces, but creates jobs, creates new industry and really kind of raises the conversation about how we rebuild."
"Some of the best work that's happening right now is from architects who have remained in their home countries and who have focused on a local or national identity and the idea of critical regionalism."
"Through training, practice, and a deep sense of optimism, architects see opportunities where others only see a void. This has been the driving principle behind Architecture for Humanity since our founding."
"When your focus is social change and not financial change why wouldn't you want to share that openly? Innovation only succeeds when it's shared."
