Authored by noted architectural scholars Alberto Pérez-Gómez and Juhani Pallasmaa as well as the preeminent architect Steven Holl, the three separate essays are thematically linked: each one tries to explain the role human perception and phenomenological experience play in architecture. In particular, Holl -- who was named by Time magazine as the most important architect of his generation and the designer of the much-lauded Chapel of St. Ignatius at Seattle University and the highly anticipated Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art addition -- lucidly explicates the importance of intuition in the construction and experience of built space. Holl explains his search for phenomenological experience thus: \"To open architecture to questions of perception, we must suspend disbelief, disengage the rational half of the mind, and simply play and explore. Reason and skepticism must yield to a horizon of discovery.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-cel-widget=\"edpIngress_feature_div\" data-csa-c-id=\"o8j1x1-2pxtr3-x8lvak-up9yhs\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1894020928\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"edpIngress_feature_div\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"edpIngress\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-feature-name=\"edpIngress\" class=\"celwidget\" id=\"edpIngress_feature_div\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-padding-base\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-row a-expander-container a-expander-extend-container\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-padding-base\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-row a-expander-container a-expander-extend-container\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ebooklok","offers":[{"title":"PDF","offer_id":56753802182987,"sku":null,"price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1031\/1204\/8971\/files\/41DvMohQjWL._SX381_BO1_204_203_200.jpg?v=1773059028","url":"https:\/\/bookread.io\/products\/questions-of-perception-phenomenology-of-architecture","provider":"bookread","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
