Description: Architecture and the Mimetic Self : A Psychoanalytic Study of How Buildings Make and Break Our Lives, Hardcover by Huskinson, Lucy, ISBN 0415693039, ISBN-13 9780415693035, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Buildings shape our identity and sense of self in profound ways that are not always evident to architects and town planners, or even to those who think they are intimately familiar with the buildings they inhabit. Architecture and the Mimetic Self provides a useful theoretical guide to our unconscious behaviour in relation to buildings, and explains both how and why we are drawn to specific elements and features of architectural design. It reveals how even the most uninspiring of buildings can be modified to meet our unconscious expectations and requirements of them—and, by the same token, it explores the repercussions for our wellbeing when buildings fail to do so.
