Dear Jan,

"The white stands for the colors our perception of
nature: the white allows me to perceive the ideas of
architecture and the relationship between opacity and
transparency, the difference between flat and linear
elements, and clarifies the ideas between the skin of
the building and its interior." (Richard Meier)

Cheers,
R

Dear Melissa,

"The whiteness clarifies the intention in terms of the way
in which light comes, in various ways, into the building;
and I think for me color is something which comes from
all the things which are out of control, the change of
nature, the uses of the building, the people in the building...
Everything gives it color" (Richard Meier)
Interesting way of approaching to the concept of use of
color in buildings, don't you think?

Best
R
