Author: Akiko Busch
In this book, Akiko Busch explores place, memory and the ambiguities of domestic life. At once humorous and meditative, these essays illuminate the emotional resonance of inanimate things; ideas of placement and displacement; the simultaneous frailty and tenacity of human recollection; the beauty of usefulness and uselessness alike; and how we do – and don’t – find our place in things. 60 short prose pieces are accompanied by 20 pieces of watercolour art to make an inspirational gift.
ISBN 9781648961502. Princeton Architectural Press. hb. 176 pages. 21 colour ills. 12.7 x 17.8 cm.
