A book to ponder!
It addresses all creative people who work on the design of architectural space. How can it be conceived, found and enhanced? How can "building art" emerge from architectural space?

Of course, any attempt of this kind depends on the personal experience of the designer who asks these questions, on his perceptual possibilities, his upbringing, his experiences, his choice of models, his thought patterns. Nevertheless, the architectural philosopher Wolfgang Meisenheimer dares to attempt to compile his experiences after 70 years of practical work.

According to Wolfgang Meisenheimer, the quality of our environment, which has already been shaped in complex ways by the development of cultures, can be enhanced particularly well along seven "paths of thought", each of which brings together architecture and its neighbouring arts.

1. the study of the local situation. The natural cosmos and the built environment around it.
2. the characteristics of our self, body and body culture
3. the ideal rules of Euclidean geometry
4. the neighbourhood
5. the design of the inside in relation to the outside
6. the movements of the body, an elementary time structure
7. the transience of all things and conditions

Just as architecture, painting, drawing, sculpture and texts are interlinked in Wolfgang Meisenheimer's work, so too is the book design conceived by Uli Meisenheimer: The viewer is constantly stimulated to make his own discoveries by parallels between the disciplines.
