    architecture is a material and social art that is the most profound of all the arts because we live inside it.     the danish philosopher kierkegaard once observed, "the highest and most beautiful things in life are not to be heard about, nor read about,nor seen but, if one will, are to be lived."architecture, designed to be "lived" in, or experienced, as part of the fabric of a larger community and as expressions of the needs of its inhabitants, can produce an unexpected set of relationships and opportunities that become manifested as social and spatial events.     it is the experiential quality of these events,the juxtaposing and arrangement of objects and forms that, when precisely crafted and well positioned, can produce extraordinarily beautiful meanings that are recognized within the participant or community.     the meaning of the works revealed in this book,fascinating house is conveyed in each ofthe projects moments of complexity, diversity,beauty, and richness. within these moments,architecture emerges as an art form, critically engaged with the visual, social, and historical culture of which it is an active part.
