– Many people today feel that what is being built is too boring, too anonymous or too square. The problem is, you think you solve things by deciding on a style rather than going to the bottom with the issues that create poor quality in current build.

Architecture and design have been given very little space in politics and budget and that may be about to change now with more interest and I look forward to that, he says.
