Abstract

Annette Condello’s The Architecture of Luxury proposes that in Western societies the growth of the leisure classes and their desire for various settings for pleasure has resulted in a constantly increasing level of ‘luxury’ sought within everyday architecture. Zeynep Ceren Akyüz recommends this interesting read to architectural historians and curious sociologists.
