Architecture is a Verb outlines an approach that shifts the
fundamental premises of architectural design and practice in
several important ways. First, it acknowledges the centrality of
the human organism as an active participant interdependent in its
environment. Second, it understands human action in terms of
radical embodiment-grounding the range of human activities
traditionally attributed to mind and cognition: imagining,
thinking, remembering-in the body. Third, it asks what a building
does-that is, extends the performative functional interpretation of
design to interrogate how buildings move and in turn move us, how
they shape thought and action. Finally, it is committed to
articulating concrete situations by developing a taxonomy of
human/building interactions. Written in engaging prose for students
of architecture, interiors and urban design, as well as practicing
professionals, Sarah Robinson offers richly illustrated practical
examples for a new generation of designers.
