Arquitectos e Engenheiros

"There is a essential difference between the architect and the engineer. The work of the engineer is geared merely to the performance of the material work within economic limits, and if it is sometimes found to contain other expressive values as well, that is only a side-effect, a subsidiary issue. The architect, on the other hand, creates a Gestalt, a form of spiritual vitality and life-fulfillment, an object that belongs to and serves an idea, that serves a higher culture."
