Paperback. Zustand: Good. "A valuable contribution."?Paul Goldberger, New York Times"Nearly every page of the book is wittily illustrated with cartoons, drawings, and photographs. If the coming generation or architects?and their clients?pay attention to it, America may someday be a much more agreeable place."?John Fischer, Harpers  As teachers of architectural design, Kent Bloomer and Charles Moore have attempted to introduce architecture from the standpoint of how buildings are experienced, how the affect individuals and communities emotionally and provide us with a sense of joy, identity, and place. In giving priority to these issues and in questioning the professional reliance on abstract two-dimensional drawings, they often find themselves in conflict with a general and undebated assumption that architecture is a highly specialized system with a set of prescribed technical goals, rather than a sensual social art historically derived from experiences and memories of the human body. This book, an outgrowth of their joint teaching efforts, places the human body at the center of our understanding of architectural form.Body, Memory, and Architecture traces the significance of the body from its place as the divine organizing principle in the earliest built forms to its near elimination from architectural thought in this century. The authors draw on contemporary models of spatial perception as well as on body-image theory in arguing for a return of the body to its proper place in the architectural equation.…

Ships in a box, quickly & w/care. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SYNOPSIS & HISTORY: Once part of what is believed to be the working library of architect David Kahler, FAIA, Body, Memory, and Architecture examines the sensory relationship between the human body and three-dimensional built space. Developed out of the introductory environmental design curriculum at the Yale School of Architecture, the text challenges twentieth-century modernist abstraction and mechanical functionalism. Authors Kent C. Bloomer and Charles W. Moore propose a somatic framework, arguing that meaningful architecture emerges through haptic memory, bodily orientation, and sensory projection rather than detached two-dimensional geometry. Designed by Tina Beebe and set in Garamond type, the volume was published by Yale University Press in New Haven and London in 1977, issued simultaneously in two bindings and printed by Haddon Craftsmen. Analytical line diagrams, structural sections, and photographs contrast historic landmarks, including the Parthenon, Bernini's forecourt at St. Peter's, and Bavarian pilgrimage churches, with modern spatial environments. Robert J. Yudell contributed to the theoretical text. A half-title signature attributed to David Kahler, FAIA (1937-2026), accompanies a pencil acquisition date of January 6, 1978, inside the front cover, placing the volume in his working library shortly after publication. Kahler served for decades as president of Kahler Slater, co-designed the Milwaukee Art Museum's Quadracci Pavilion expansion alongside Santiago Calatrava, and directed the restoration of the Wisconsin State Capitol.
