"Architecture, suggests Karsten Harries, is not only about domesticating space, wresting and shaping a livable place out of empty space. It is also a deep defense against 'the terror of time.' The 'language of beauty' is 'the language of timeless reality.' To create a beautiful object is 'to link time and eternity' in such a way as to redeem us from time's tyranny. The aim of spatial constructs is...'to abolish time within time, if only for a time'" - David Harvey, 1990
