Discussion Tateshina Planetarium Commentary

The Creator's Words

"Symbolism will replace Analysis, 
 Deconstruction will replace 
     Structuring,
 Quotation will replace introduction, 
 Intermediation will replace
     synthesis,
 Transformation will replace
     adaptation, 
 Sophistication will replace
     clarification,
 and Connotation will replace
     denotation."

— Kisho Kurokawa. from Bill Lacy. 100 Contemporary Architects: Drawings and Sketches. p140.
