The Eyes of the Skin: Architecture and the Senses by Juhani Pallasmaa

The Eyes of the Skin: Architecture and the Senses by Juhani Pallasmaa

Modern architecture is designed to be photographed. Pallasmaa's argument is that this has produced buildings you cannot inhabit with your whole body.

He makes the case for touch, sound, smell and temperature as architectural materials — the weight of a door handle, the acoustics of a stairwell — and against a culture of design that privileges the eye above every other sense.

A short classic on every architecture school reading list, and readable by anyone who has ever felt uneasy in a beautiful room.
