One of the great, but often unmentioned, causes of both happiness and misery is the quality of our environment: the kind of walls, chairs, buildings and streets we?re surrounded by. And yet a concern for architecture and design is too often described as frivolous, even self-indulgent. The Architecture of Happiness starts from the idea that where we are heavily influences who we can be, and argues that it is architecture?s task to stand as an eloquent reminder of our full potential. By asking the large and naïve question, ?What is a beautiful building??, Alain de Botton aims to change the way we think about our homes, streets and ourselves.
