Juhani Pallasmaa Quotes

I Confront The City With My Body; My Legs Measure The Length Of The Arcade And The Width Of The Square; My Gaze Unconsciously Projects My Body Onto The Facade Of The Cathedral, Where It Roams Over The Mouldings And Contours, Sensing The Size Of Recesses And Projections; My Body Weight Meets The Mass Of The Cathedral Door, And My Hand Grasps The Door Pull As I Enter The Dark Void Behind. I Experience Myself In The City, And The City Exists Through My Embodied Experience. The City And My Body Supplement And Define Each Other. I Dwell In The City And The City Dwells In Me.
