Style

Williams works from the premise that architecture is primarily concerned with simple components such as light, form, space, scale, and material. Coupled with due consideration for scale history and context, this results in buildings that achieve a stark aesthetic balance between his contemporary designs and that which exists whether sensitive and historic, or brownfield A passionate believer in the capacity for architecture and the public realm to enhance the lives of citizens, he has devoted much of his career to designing major projects including Theatres, Concert Halls and Opera Houses, Civic Buildings, Museums, Galleries and Libraries.

Famous quotes containing the word style:

    His style is chaos illumined by flashes of lightning. As a writer he has mastered everything except language.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    We are often struck by the force and precision of style to which hard-working men, unpracticed in writing, easily attain when required to make the effort. As if plainness and vigor and sincerity, the ornaments of style, were better learned on the farm and in the workshop than in the schools. The sentences written by such rude hands are nervous and tough, like hardened thongs, the sinews of the deer, or the roots of the pine.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I might say that what amateurs call a style is usually only the unavoidable awkwardnesses in first trying to make something that has not heretofore been made.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
