“I like to draw while traveling as a way of learning to see, of deepening my gaze, of penetrating the life of things. Knowing how to see, Siza wrote, is the architect’s best weapon. It’s about looking where others don’t look, observing the hidden side, the unseen face, the interior of things, because things always contain more than they show. Learning to observe is key, because for an architect, erudition simply consists of continuous and attentive observation. Observation, which is the foundation of knowledge.” From EGA magazine, issue 50.
