"The architect aspires to build in a city as the artist aspires to exhibit his works in a museum." — Mario Botta

There is great mystery in a church. For me, there is a great privilege to be confronted with the design of a church because it shelters the most powerful themes of humanity: birth, marriage, death.

I wanted to design a museum in which everything would seem clear.

It was very useful to learn the history, the theory, and the art of building from a practical background.

Artificial light is used because you can control it better. Technically, it is more homogeneous, more delicate, and less damaging to artwork. But I think it's interesting when the visitor can see variations in the light, when it is not only technical or suitable.
