"It's expressive economy"

Alvaro Siza in ICON 071

The full quote
I don't like the word "minimalism", maybe it's more like maximalism because it's to consider the maximal condition. Many times minimalism is the result of much work and much search and conquest. It's expressive economy, not a result of reducing the problems.
