- Summary
- The overpowering, diverse physicality of a city makes it appear to be a mass of innumerable objects, too big to take in all at once. However, a city also speaks to us through tangible atmospheres - some locations within it appeal to us, whereas some do not. This book traverses the city - the space we experience, where ambient, environmental qualities create atmospheric moods that ultimately determine our personal state. The question this book poses is this: can such an analysis of purely subjective urban impressions lead to a deeper understanding of the city?
