The Faculty of Architecture of the Czech Technical University in Prague announces with sorrow that on December 7, 2010, the significant Czech architect and educator Prof. Ing. arch. Jan Bočan passed away at the age of 73.
“For me, architecture is the creation of space. The measure of space is the person and their perceptions. For me, there is no difference between urbanism and architecture. They are only tasks that differ in scale and detail.
Architecture is space that is defined by mass. The priority is to compose space. The mass of the building is a means - material for defining space. I believe this is the essence of architectural creation.”
