 Farshid Moussavi:
     ·  Excess vs Minimalism.
    ·  Ornament must have function.
    ·  Sense of order through repetition and           symmetry.
    ·  Research looks at identifying         instruments that create intelligent and           creative forms.
    ·  Using specifically architectural theories like   landscape and iconography.
    ·  Architecture needs to have novel effects in   order for cultures to evolve.
    ·  The built environment plays a critical role in  people’s lives.

    ·  It is not about the forms, but how they  function effectively.



Frei Otto:
·  Collaborative approach to architecture.
·   Systematic method of inventions.
·   Early adopter of computational form finding.
·   Optimization of materials.
·    Architecture is the continuation of landscape.
·    Democratic architecture.
·    Temporary architecture.

·    More with less.
