He isparticularly keen on investigating the technologic and tactile quality <strong>of</strong> design. He calls thisTechnics. This involves sensibility and an appreciation <strong>of</strong> the quality <strong>of</strong> materials and spaces; thequantities <strong>of</strong> the environment, building dynamics, gravity, production and process; and mostimportantly, the human experiential responses and needs. A motto to his students is: To make abuilding energy efficient and technologically sound is not that difficult, to compose it beautifully andpoetically at the same time requires one’s lifetime pursuit._______Page 7 <strong>of</strong> 61 Jun 2012
