I love this image as it suggests that light is something you want to touch. 

Like nature, architecture reveals the shape of light, its subtlety and its intrinsic beauty. 

We move towards the light but we need to shelter from its harmful effects. 

Too much light can damage our skin and too little can have negative effects. 

Like a giant light shade the role of architecture is to temper and harness its energy. 

It is universal and it is abundant.

It connects people to the time of day, season and patterns of weather. 

It is a way to connect people to their environment and create a sense of place. 

I can think of nothing better than to make buildings better respond to daylight.

And find ways to shape space, material and form around the changing character of the day.
