“I decided a long time ago to live in a parallel world where the paradigms are different. Since I don’t want to wait, I am building it day by day. Let’s enter the world of Urban Menus, which may motivate you to believe that you are a being who recognizes for himself what future he wants for his life and that of the next generations.”

“In order to design and realize the new campus of the Vienna University of Economics and Business, I took on nine roles. The additional role of networker seemed to me afterwards to be the most important. To this day, I am convinced that only with the right ALLIANCES can a consensus be reached that is necessary for the realization of urban wonders.”
