Henry van de Velde: I Love Machines

Henry van de Velde once said:

“I love machines; they are like creatures of a higher order. Intelligence has freed them of all the woes and joys which are the lot of the human body in its activity and its exhaustion. Machines on their concrete bases act like serenely meditating Buddhas, squatting on their timeless lotus. They vanish when more beautiful, more perfect ones are born.”

Born in 1863, the Belgian architect was a primary influence in the founding of the Art Nouveau movement in Belgium. All about him here.
