    I haven't finished watching it yet and I'm already in tears. There are so many things I want to say and I can't say a word. From last year to this year, I have seen the film that touches me the most, and I can really see the power. Even if there are many flaws, it is still worthy of a generation of...

    To be fair, such a personal and universal narrative perspective that is half bitter and joyful is really hard to replicate. An illegitimate child is looking for the absent father figure, and has a silent dialogue through the great building that stands forever, and also puts aside his prejudice and listens to the stories of his colleagues and those around him. Having gone through this long journey with him, I believe he really wanted to find an answer in the first place. We can look at it as an...

    Mr. Kang used to take on some big projects. Although there are not many works, they are all very stylish and a designer with strong personal symbols. However, this film has too much pen and ink to tell his personal experience, and I hope to see the interpretation of the story behind his works. Seeing his last project before his death, the interview at the Bangladesh Council Building, the amateurs commented on the deceased designer with tears in their eyes, and the influence and shock of getting...

    My favorite is the symphony ship that travels around the world. It turns out that there really is something similar to Verne's novel. It can be opened and turned into a symphony orchestra when it is moored in various ports. It is romantic and crazy. Port encounter. And on the rivers of Bengal, I believe Nathaniel is really starting to understand his...

My Architect quotes

  • Louis Kahn: A work of art... is not a living thing... that walks or runs. But the making of a life. That which gives you a reaction. To some it is the wonder of man's fingers. To some it is the wonder of the mind. To some it is the wonder of technique. And to some it is how real it is. To some, how transcendent it is. Like the 5th Symphony, it presents itself with a feeling that you know it, if you have heard it once. And you look for it, and though you know it you must hear it again. Though you know it you must see it again. Truly, a work of art is one that tells us that Nature cannot make what man can make.

  • Louis Kahn: When you want to give something presence, you have to consult nature. And there is where design comes in. If you think of brick, for instance, you say to brick, "What do you want, brick?" And brick says to you, "I like an arch." And if you say to brick, "Look, arches are expensive, and I can use a concrete lintel over you. What do you think of that, brick?" brick says, "I like an arch."

    [Students laugh]

    Louis Kahn: And it's important, you see, that you honor the material that you use. You don't bandy it around as though you said, "Well, we have a lot of material around. We can do it one way, we can do it another." It's not true. You can only do it if you honor the brick, and glorify the brick, instead of just shortchanging it.
