Description
No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased with very minor traces of storage. 280pp. Our buildings and the objects we fill them with affect us more profoundly than we might think. The author tackles this subject via the architecture of properties, from the humble terraced house to some of the world's most renowned buildings, considering how these influence how we feel and how architects could build in ways that would increase our chances of happiness.
