. philosophy

i understand architecture as a process, which is constantly developing, yet, for me, the principles as defined by vitruv in ancient times are still valid in the future

firmitas firmness, stability 
construction, materiality and technology must prove themselves on a
long-term basis. they should work together in such a way that they stay valid
under changing conditions and varying use 
 
utilitas appropriateness, usefulness
finding solutions to fit the cultural, social, functional, ecological and
economic needs of the owners and users
 
venustas grace, beauty
architectural creations should be shaped by the particular identity of the place and the multiplicity of the task. the architecture language is to achieve maximized expression by minimal means
