It explains step by step why the building environment became so boring. A death sentence to the “well-mannered” box.

    Humanise by Thomas Heatherwick is hands down the coolest book I've ever read! It's not just interesting; it's a game-changer. This book came to the rescue when I had to write a history essay. The way Heatherwick spins ideas is mind-blowing and made my essay pop with a fresh perspective. It's not just a book; it's your secret weapon for both leisure and academia. Seriously, get ready to be hooked!

    Format: Paperback
    Thomas Hetherwick's architectural portfolio consists exclusively of ugly eyesores. He is the infamous designer of that hideous giant "sculpture" at New York's Hudson Yards which has been closed indefinitely after four suicides jumped to their deaths from it - I believe in its first year. How Hetherwick fancies himself qualified to lecture us on what kind of architecture to appreciate is...unfathomable...kind of like "cat lady" Jocelyn Wildenstein writing a book on how to be more beautiful.
    Hetherwick's international legacy is one of architectural monstrosities - very much in line with the ugliness of "Brutalist" design of several decades ago. Frankly, if he had never become an "architect" the world would be a much better & more attractive place.

    Surprisingly its a thick book but they use nice and perfect size of font and good graphic.
    i finished reading this book just half day.

    The words use in this book is like a diary from the writer. So we feel like we are close with the writer.
    I am happy also one of the beautiful Toraja traditional house Tongkonan house photo was featured in one page of the book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Down With Boring Architecture
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 21, 2023
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This is a brilliant crystallisation of what many of us have been thinking about architecture today. Heatherwick’s concise and accessible analysis of the issues surrounding contemporary architecture is both persuasive and beautifully articulated. The rejection of boring, the embrace of structured complexity and the recognition of widely held public rather than profession beliefs about beauty and what constitutes good architecture is both correct and a clarion call for change in architectural design. Designing for longevity and flexibility for adaptive re-use and the ‘2-metre door distance’ rule are only a couple of the many strategic and highly useful practical insights this often witty and highly entertaining book delivers. After a few pages, I couldn’t put it down, and read it cover to cover - its a genuine page turner and my best read so far this year.
