“You feel a certain way in a glass or concrete or limestone building. It has an effect on your skin - the same with plywood or veneer, or solid timber. Wood doesn't steal energy from your body the way glass and concrete steal heat. When it's hot, a wood house feels cooler than a concrete one, and when it's cold, the other way around.” WayFeelsBodyCertainHouseEnergyEffectsBuildingColdSkinsHotGlassesWoodsYour BodyStealingHeatConcreteTimberVeneerLimestone Author:Peter Zumthor
“It's important to cultivate detachment. One way to do this is to practice imagining yourself dead, or in the process of dying. If there's a window, you must imagine your body falling out the window. If there's a knife, you must imagine the knife piercing your skin. If there's a train coming, you must imagine your torso flattened under its wheels. These exercises are necessary to achieving the proper distance.” IfsWayImportantBodyFallProcessPracticeImagineAchieveDyingWindowSkinsDistanceTrainYour BodyOne WayWheelsEmptinessKnivesDetachmentNumbnessPiercingsTorsoGirl InterruptedImagining Yourself Author:Susanna Kaysen
