Music is liquid architecture; Architecture is frozen music.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Allow the information to tell you how it wants to be displayed. As architecture is ‘frozen music’, information architecture is ‘frozen conversation’. Any good conversation is based on understanding.

Richard Saul Wurman

If music is frozen architecture, then the potpourri is frozen coffee-table gossip... Potpourri is the art of adding apples to pears.

Arnold Schoenberg

When we come to understand architecture as the essential nature of all harmonious structure we will see that it is the architecture of music that inspired Bach and Beethoven, the architecture of painting that is inspiring Picasso as it inspired Velasquez, that it is the architecture of life itself that is the inspiration of the great poets and philosophers.

Frank Lloyd Wright

Since it [architecture] is music in space, as it were a frozen music.

Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling

Architecture is for the young. If our teenagers don't get architecture - if they are not inspired, (then) we won't have the architecture that we must have if this country is going to be beautiful.

Frank Lloyd Wright

There is no ecological architecture, no intelligent architecture and no sustainable architecture - there is only good architecture. There are always problems we must not neglect. For example, energy, resources, costs, social aspects - one must always pay attention to all these.

Eduardo Souto de Moura

Architecture in general is frozen music.

Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling

I call architecture frozen music.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I have found a paper of mine among some others in which I call architecture 'petrified music.' Really there is something in this; the tone of mind produced by architecture approaches the effect of music.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Architecture may be frozen music, but it melts.

Osbert Lancaster

Madam de Stael pronounced architecture to be frozen music; so is statuary crystalized spirituality.

Louisa May Alcott

I have found among my papers a sheet . . . in which I call architecture frozen music.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Architecture is frozen music. [Ger., Die Backunst ist eine erstarrte Musik.]

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Architecture produces a musical mood in our inner being, and we notice that even though the elements of architecture and music appear to be so alien in the outer world, through this musical mood engendered in us, our experience of architecture brings about a reconciliation, a balance between these two elements.

Rudolf Steiner

What connects architecture and music is that neither one is really an object. It's more like an ambience, a surrounding and a context. You can do other things while you're listening to music and of course, you can do other things while you're in the middle of architecture. The notion of multi-attention seems to me like it's the keynote to the beginning of the 21st century.

Vito Acconci
