He was a craftsman, the son of a tailor and a pianist, who distilled the beauty of the cities and buildings he saw into their essential attributes and used the same cloth to imagine and reimagine places for people to live together. He was gentle but uncompromising in everything he did, preferring to withdraw than be drawn into political skirmishes, inhuman bureaucracy or pollute his designs. He created beauty with his hands every day: in his drawings, the beautiful piano music he played, the fruit he carefully prepared every morning for his beloved wife. He suffered viscerally for those in hardship and was disillusioned with the course of the world. Without ego or fear of voicing unpopular ideas, he remained unwaveringly true to his ideals of beauty, community and friendship.     <\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are deeply saddened by the passing of L\u00e9on Krier, who was for many years a friend and collaborator of this Foundation, a member of the jury for the Rafael Manzano Prize and the Richard H.
