The Architecture of Happiness by Alain De Botton
John Ruskin proposed that every good building must do two things: it must shelter us, but it must also speak to us. This book tackles the questions of architecture and interior design at a deserved level of philosophical depth, and takes us on a journey through Western and Eastern aesthetics.
