Invisible Architecture:
"and realized with such integrity and competence as to make possible the unselfconscious enjoyment not only of the environment controlled by the devices but also of all the Earth and all the Universe by all its people in an economically and happily sustainable manner. But just as music is not the musical instrument, the architecture of tomorrow (which can and is now only invisibly emerging) also will not be the architectural instruments or gadgets, but will be the abstract harmony of living which its individual users may articulate.
"When you bite your tongue or cut your finger or get a cinder in your eye you become acutely aware of these otherwise only subconsciously operating organic parts. When people say ‘I feel great,’ it is because they don’t feel anything at all. Life is fully potential and the entirely sublimated human organism coordinates omnisubconsciously. The new era architecture will operate in the same way making itself ever less obtrusive. Architecture will not only be life itself but that life will be strictly live-it-yourself. It cannot be lived vicariously through others.
