The teacher was really outstanding and instilled a deep interest in architecture in me \u2014 before that, I had not given architecture much thought. Then, in graduate school, another outstanding teacher introduced me to the works of Land Artists in the 60s and 70s. Seeing those works gave me a completely new understanding of what architecture could be and gave me a sense of a lifelong project \u2014 of making space deeply intertwined with the land and environment.<\/p>\n<p><b>First architecture\/design job:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>A summer internship at the late Joseph Allen Stein\u2019s office in New Delhi.

It probably has to be Ludwig Mies Van der Rohe for the mastery of his spaces opening to their surroundings and his masterful urbanism that could invert exterior and interior space (Federal Plaza in Chicago, for instance). Eduardo Souta de Moura\u2019s house that carves space out of landscaped terraces is a piece of poetry, and the way he creates landscape features (like stone retaining walls) that then become part of interior spaces is stunning. The elegant stony sides of Niemeyer\u2019s UN building in New York, seen from the FDR, achieves subtle monumentality.
