A propos de cet article

The format is approximately 6.75 inches by 8.625 inches. x, 242, [4] pages. Illustrated front cover. Illustrations (some in color). Appendix. Notes. Bibliography. Signed by the author on the title page. Both an accessible and fascinating title, this book reveals how our past experiences and psychological developments inform the choices we make today when selecting a place that we truly feel is our "home". It considers our "environmental autobiographies" and our psychological development in respect to urban experiences, focusing on the personal stories of Charles Jencks, Michael Graves and Andres Duany, three of the most prominent figures of our time from the world of design. Both theoretical and practical exercises involve the reader in understanding and improving the quality of their own environment. An entirely new approach to architectural design which combines aesthetics and psychology. Toby Israel, Ph.D. is a visionary founder of the field of Design Psychology. Defined as "the practice of architecture, planning and interior design in which psychology is the principal design tool", this discipline continues to gain international attention including in the L.A. Times, Oprah Home, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Boston Globe, the Philadelphia Inquirer, IIDA and on CBS Sunday Morning, NPR’s Talk of the Nation and Radio Times (radio interview with Marty Moss-Coane). The Design Psychology visioning sessions and one-to-one interviews/exercises Dr. Israel conducts bring to the fore the vast personal store of experience and emotions that contribute to an individual's choice and design of home and place. Those she has led through her "toolbox" of exercises include Michael Graves, Denise Scott Brown, Andres Duany and Jane Pauley. Trained as an Environmental Psychologist, Dr. Israel has over twenty-five years of experience in design, psychology, the arts and education. She has served as an environmental consultant in the USA and UK including as the project manager for the research division of LRK (Looney Ricks Kiss design firm), as the Visual Arts Coordinator for the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, and as a professor at the University of Lincoln School of Architecture (UK). Through Oasis by Design LLC in Princeton, N.J. she works nationally and internationally with designers and clients and as a world-class speaker spreading the word about Design Psychology.…
