Phenomenological ways for rethinking architecture

Returning to a long and fruitful anthropological tradition, which has flourished from phenomenological-hermeneutical thought, I propose an understanding of the human being as “bodily conscience” or “embodied conscience”. Unlike objects, human beings have a relationship with space which is intrinsic to their existence. My aim is to delve deeper into the meaning of this “human dwelling” with special reference to the questions of building and projecting. Places are not mere contexts, mere backgrounds where events and activities take place, but rather they play an active role in the building of relationships, groups, imagination, and self-awareness
