The Eyes of the Skin: Architecture and the Senses

by Juhani Pallasmaa • 1996

The much admired Finish thinker presents his polemical statement on the situation facing Modern architecture today. Fresh from his success from the animal exhibition, where he explores the relationships between animals and their environments, he uses this opportunity to vent thoughts which are the result of many years of careful observation and influence. Discussing the overriding visual image of modern architecture he explores the effects of this dominating style over other contemporary styles.
