Architecture to him is a combination of craftsmanship and creativity - a way to not only design, but also physically participate in the creation of space. It is a field where theory meets practice, and the work gives great satisfaction and pride in the end result. Architecture is also a social responsibility - creating for people and close to them, responding to their needs. What he designs can not only bring a smile, but also become a backdrop for important moments and memories. Lukasz Danilczuk's great motivation is the realization that through architecture he can make a real difference in the quality of life of others.
