We rely on surrounding atmosphere so that indirectly it represents and reminds to us the states of mind and the ideas that we love. We expect that our buildings, like a psychological mould, keep us linked to an useful conception of ourselves. Around we arrange shapes and materials which communicate to us what we need inside in order to not risk to forget them. We address to the tapestry, the benches, the pictures, the roads in order to stop the passing of our true personality. From “Architecture and happiness” of A. de Botton
