“Finding beauty in normality seems to me a profound position and something very modern and very different from what our contemporary society is doing, which is to make us hungry for novelty,” he said. “The system is out there to make us dissatisfied. I believe we will look back on this period with some confusion.”
At the same time, Chipperfield said, he is not despairing. “I haven’t lost my confidence in architecture itself,” he said. “We make a physically better world, we make a generally better world. I have always held on to that.”
