“The emotional power of a space, inherent in all built form, is something I experienced profoundly early in my architectural education while visiting two early-1970s buildings on the Phillips Exeter campus in New Hampshire. One building made me feel insignificant and increasingly angry and alienated as I walked through it; the other — just as tangibly — inspired a strong feeling of centeredness and balance. At the end of that day, I thought, “This is what I want to do” — create buildings that move people emotionally, that elicit and inspire a sense of well-being, serenity, and wholeness.”
