It is this zig-zag way that Catalan architect Enric Miralles chose to live and explore in his architecture.
Miralles also believed that throughout an architect's career, every aspect of his personal and professional life was influential to his own projects.
Architecture, according to Miralles, is a companion of mankind through this journey, consequently it should refer not only to the space we live in, but also, to time.
