Some Place Like Home by Toby Israel
Personal history plays an enormous role in the type of aesthetic choices that underlie home design and selection. An individual's environmental autobiography, a lifetime of environmental experiences, undoubtedly informs an aesthetic outlook. This architectural design study discusses these concepts, bridging the world of aesthetics and psychology. It focuses on the environmental stories of innovators including Michael Graves, Charles Jencks and Andres Duany, examining the impress of personal history on some of their well-known public works, to illustrate how inextricably life and work are bound.
"Some Place Like Home..considered the bible of the field." (LA Times, March 15, 2007) "...explores a new field of work...features exercises so readers can analyse their own past..." (Design Week, December 2003) "...an extraordinary book, intellectually written...includes thought-provoking exercises...will make you a believer..." (Design Management Review, Spring 2004)
