After working for Stirling for three years, Krier then spent 20 years in England practicing and teaching at the Architectural Association and Royal College of Art. In this period, Krier’s statement: “I am an architect, because I don’t build”, became a famous expression of his uncompromising antimodernist attitude. Since 1990, Krier has served as the art director and designer for Giorgetti, an Italian furniture company.
