Product details

We are what we build. Historical traditions convey to us the knowledge about the purpose and style of buildings. However, this book reveals what kind of spatial experience the architectural form of structures created and what other forces were at play. The French writer and philosopher Albert Camus said that everyone is responsible for their face. A building can be seen as the face of society - it is shaped by the character of its era. In the beginning was the cave, and what followed tells the history of architecture. However, the ancient pyramids of Egypt are also considered the most technically perfect constructions. But why was the ton-heavy stone material for the construction of the pyramids transported over long distances by human muscle power when they could have been built right next to the quarries? Were there not better ways to honor the dead?.
