preface

Editor’s note:

Welcome to Drama channel, here there is no advanced theoretical knowledge, only scenes and stories, let everyone as much as possible to get some reference, if you are interested, then let’s begin!

The book that Drama recommends for this issue is welcome to Your World, which explains how environmental architecture shapes and influences our emotions, cognition and happiness.

Without further ado, let’s get started!

“What we see in the building determines what kind of people we will become.”

This book can let us in the numbness of the familiar living environment to revive our delicate perception of the surrounding environment, and understand some interesting phenomena in psychology.

For example, if you are thinking about an argument you had with a friend not long ago, if you are in a dirty place, you are likely to hold a grudge against your friend. On the other hand, if you are in a nice place, you will probably have an understanding of your friend. The buildings and objects around you act as primes.

In this book, the author quotes the famous philosopher Descartes’ mind/body dualism, explaining how the curves, straight lines, colors, high saturation and low saturation of the built environment affect our sensory and visual systems.

Why some places feel like home and others feel so oppressive is the answer to both visual aesthetics and psychology in this book.

At the same time, this book also explains the subtle influence and shaping effect of architectural environment space from the aspects of natural light, sound, color, smell, material and space size.

Our lives are increasingly dominated by social media, and the appearance of a building is gradually becoming the standard to judge whether a building is good or not, while the inner feelings of people staying in the building are increasingly ignored.

conclusion

“Break out of your fixed visual thinking and look at your familiar surroundings from a different dimension.”
