The Wisdom of Eero

Found this fantastic quote from the great architect Eero Saarinen (1910-1961) in the Book Eero Saarinen: An Architecture of of Multiplicity by Antonio Ramón. It’s true for architecture and for all forms of design as well. An insightful bit of wisdom.

Architecture is like a marvelous three-dimensional chess game. Every move or decision affects every other move or decision.

– Eero Saarinen

Here is a great list of some of his iconic buildings: 15 Landmark Buildings by Architect Eero Saarinen
