Toyo Ito

"I compared man to tarzan.
tarzan in the jungle creates his body and develops it in contact with nature,
in relation to the surrounding environment.
modern man is a sort of tarzan who lives in the world of media,
within a very developed technology.
architecture should be a sort of media-clothing,
which is necessary in order for man to have a relationship
with and integrate himself into the environment.
the idea of media-clothing is a metaphor."
