Emotional vs Cool

"There's a lot of appreciation for the cool architecture. I have always been an opponent of it, I think emotion is needed. Life without emotion would really not be life. Even the mind is emotional. There is no reason which does not take a position and ethical sphere and the philosophical mystery if what we are. So I think emotion is a dimension that is important to introduce into city space, into city life. And of course, we're all about the struggle of emotions and I think that is what makes the world a wondrous place. And of course, the confrontation of the cool, the unemotional, with emotion is a conversation that I think cities themselves have fostered. I think that is the progress of cities. It's not only the forms of cities, but the fact that they incarnate emotions not just of those who built them, but also those who live there as well...."
