11. 5. 2024

He was a child prodigy but not in architecture, he play accordeon. He was obsesed with drawing and his mother got worried. She gave him a piece of advice that changed his life - go into architecture. And he did. But he did not build his first building until he was 52. His very first building was very unconventional Jewish Museum in Berlin. He does not travel with a camera, he travels with a sketchbook. He likes to work with light and believes in radical architecture. He is the author of Ground zero masterplan. The site of the memorial to the victims of 9/11 attacks.
