Inspiration
The pages in this section are a resource for students to share what they’ve learned and what inspires them. Our design articles section is a place to submit any interesting articles that touch on the subject of design. The quotes page will be open to submit quotes that inspire you both as a designer and person. The intent of this section is to inspire and motivate members of our student chapter.
“Basically, I no longer work for anything but the sensation I have while working.”
Alberto Giacometti
“Art is contemplation. It is the pleasure of the mind which searches into nature and which there divines the spirit of which Nature herself is animated.”
Auguste Rodin
“The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web.”
Pablo Picasso
“In art, all who have done something other than their predecessors have merited the epithet of revolutionary; and it is they alone who are masters.”
Paul Gauguin
“Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light.”
Le Corbusier
“All architecture is shelter. All great architecture is the design of space that contains, cuddles, exalts, or stimulates the persons in that space.”
Phillip Johnson
