Mutluluğun Mimarisi 
This is a book I will need to read many many times, which it allows thankfully. It is a small book full of huge ideas and philosophies that weave together and escort the reader through the many ideas of architecture, what it is, and what it should and can be. Looking forward to thinking on this book further and returning to it again down the road.
One can easily tell from Alain de Botton's writing that he is one of the most genuinely kind individuals on this planet. This is an excellent book on the importance of thoughtful architecture. It would have been nice to have more discussion on the constraints of money, and how working-class folks can build homes the are a net positive instead of the cookie-cutter high-density suburban debacle that many of us are forced into.

Years ago I listened to a lecture by the Muslim scholar Sayyid Hossein Nasr that described the philosophy of traditional Islamic city planning, some of which still survives today in places like Fez and Esfahan. As Nasr described, these cities and their component parts were designed with the explicit belief that a person's external environment strongly influenced their internal state. A city that at every turn subtly reminded people of the divine reality would in turn help them gravitate towards
beauuuutiful read! highly recommended to people who love buildings lol
First read January 2008Casa P, Sao Paulo, by Marcio KoganThat most of this feels like something I might myself have written, I take to be an indictment of my own education. I am going to an attempt a highly critical reading, because I am suspicious of how comfortable I feel in it. Technically, it is as much about interior decoration as about architecture, but that makes less of a snappy title.The book never quite stops apologising for its subject, de Botton repeating that architecture seems
I originally rated this book 4 stars; but given how often I think about it, how often Sam and I talk about it, and how frequently I recommend it to library patrons and friends I had to bump it up.

His writing style just flows, it's never boring.His sensuality to space isn't sentimental at all, it's on point, he makes it feel like realistic poetry, were you just can't but relate, it's not just for architects, it's for everyone that has depth.This is a book I will need to read many many times, which it allows thankfully.
