Gaetano Pesce, Bahia House in Brazil
“Architecture is never using color, which is very strange. The Bahia House is full of color because color is important to transfer a meaning that is very close to the meaning of life — energy, color, life. For me, it’s very important to transfer all those things through architecture.” – Gaetano Pesce
