On the Appearance of the World
A Future for Aesthetics in Architecture
How can architecture develop better aesthetic directions for the twenty-first-century built environment?
Our world, increasingly defined by efficient but unconsidered architecture and cities, seems to be getting uglier. In On the Appearance of the World, Mark Foster Gage asks why. He imagines a future scenario where architectural design and ideas from aesthetic philosophy align toward the production of a built world that is more humane, habitable, beautiful, and just.
