Horror in Architecture

Valutazione del libro

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

« This book looks at horor and its architectural analogues. These are buildings in which normal anatomy becomes strange : extra pieces appear, holes open when they should not, individual objects are doubleb or split or perversely occupied. Conventions are refigured, showing a shift from « natural » norms to new possibilities. Through an investigation that spans design, art and literature, this study attempts to limn horror in its many tropes and forms – and in so doing to identify a creeping unease at the very center of the modern project. » (source : 4e de couv.)
