Valetta, Malta 01.28.05

The fortified city of Valleta, Malta has something I have been looking for in Monumental Space. There is a great tension created between the smaller scale rectalinear city and the monumental, angular walls of the city.

"The room is the beginning of architecture. It is the place of the mind. You in the room with its dimensions, its structure, its light respond to its character, its spiritual aura, recognizing, that whatever the human proposes and makes, becomes a life."
