Ten Rules of Architecture
1. Irrational judgments lead to new experience.
2. Ideas do not necessarily proceed in logical order. They may set one off in unexpected directions, but an idea must necessarily be completed in the mind before the next one is formed.
3. Successful architectures changes our understanding of the conventions by altering our perceptions.
4. Perception is subjective.
5. Architect may not necessarily understand their own architecture. Their perception is neither better nor worse than that of others.
6. There are many elements involved in a work of architecture. The most important are the most obvious.
8. Banal ideas cannot be rescued by beautiful execution.
9. When architects learn their craft too well they make slick buildings.
10. For each concept of architecture that becomes physical there are many variations that do not.
