"How do we construct happiness? What components make for a happy building or space? How do we measure and quantify this response? is it possible? Who is responsible for it? Can it be built in?”
"Building Happiness"--something that I thought was really cool and that, also, made a lot of sense. The book talks about human's relationship with architecture and the way things are designed around them that have an affect on their emotional state. The book studies how we measure and define our happiness and how the spaces around us dictate the psychological impact on these evaluations. Are our emotional states simply personal feelings, or could it be also the things around us that influence our moods?
The book includes work from contemporary architects, artists, writers and commentators that are able to showcase their hypotheses in both short commentaries and long essays.
