Architecture that is to have a sensual connection with life requires thinking that goes far beyond form and construction. In his texts, Peter Zumthor expresses what motivates him to create these buildings, which appeal to emotion and reason in so many ways and have an unconditional presence and charisma.This book, which is now in its third edition, has now been supplemented by two new essays: "Architecture and Landscape" deals with the relationship between building and environment, the secret of successful placement and topographical integration of architecture. In "Die Leiserhäuser", Peter Zumthor describes the creation of two wooden houses in Leis, Graubünden, and thus addresses the special challenge of integrating contemporary architecture into a traditional architectural context.
