Text taken from: luigirosselli.com - a reflection of the Luigi Rosselli practice. 

Architecture exists in time, place and space.  Each time is different, each place has its own opportunities and challenges, and so each space must respond uniquely.

“I believe it is possible to settle a building on its site, create a marriage and a dialogue with that site. … I don’t think the building needs to fly over the site …I think there should be a strong connection between the building and the land.”
Luigi Rosselli

A building is the result of collaboration between client and architect.  An architect who dominates the relationship, who imposes a style on the client does not understand the nature of the relationship.  The architect should listen as much as speak, question as much as state.
