Discover how buildings shape our everyday lives with “Architecture and Ritual.” This insightful book from The Bookish Owl delves beyond mere style and utility to reveal the implicit ways our spaces influence and reflect our unconscious experiences. Author Peter Blundell Jones explores the profound connection between social relations and spatial design, demonstrating how architecture consolidates our interactions, from grand ceremonies to daily meals. Through diverse case studies spanning architectural history and global cultures, including the Nuremberg Rally and Dogon dwellings, this book offers critical insights into how buildings structure human ritual. It’s an essential read for understanding architectural history, theory, and the crucial role of framing social space for contemporary architects.
