“The sun never knew how great it was until it hit the side of a building.”
—Louis Kahn (1901–74)

If there’s one thing architects like doing more than designing buildings, it’s talking about architecture. 

In The Architect Says Laura S. Dushkes collects some of the most colorful quotes from more than one hundred of history’s most opinionated design minds. Paired like guests at a dinner party—an architect of today might sit next to a contemporary or someone from centuries ago—these quotations convey a remarkable range of viewpoints.

You may not be able to literally join that imaginary dinner party, but if you’re in Seattle on Tuesday you can come close when Secret Garden Bookshop hosts a launch party for Laura and The Architect Says.
