More felt than seen, space is a key quality of architecture that has eluded definition for centuries. People speak of how they feel in certain spaces, or how they move through them, yet those spaces are only truly defined by their functions, or the architecture that encapsulates them.

With its highly original roster of historic examples, this book also reads as an unconventional and fascinating cross-section of the history of architecture.
