I just read an article by a gentleman named Karsten Harries ("The Ethical Function of Architecture"): He thinks we must utilize architecture to re-establish a "lost ethos, of environments which will make a genuine dwelling possible." He does not seem optimistic about our cultural condition and our chances of finding our way out of this situation.
Has technology eroded intimacy by making the world a closer space? Is the world indeed closer-together because of our technological creations? Is intimacy and distance inversely related?
How does architecture play a role in reconnecting us with genuine dwelling?
