Sitting in a Florentine plaza, the bustle of the city surrounds you, vaulted ceilings and stained glass windows, the singular sensation of your childhood home; all perceived with emotions, an embodied experience involving all senses. Light, sound, texture, novel uses of space, material, and tectonics work towards the formation of emotion in space, an architectural Atmospherics of memorable experience. It has no standardized set of principles, emotion and feeling is the primal concern: the designing of a building that “moves” the visitor (Zumthor, 2003). This manufactured set of effects does not exist for its own sake, but is a means towards other program-based ends. Spirit, consumption, memory, environs, regeneration; these will be the tag words in this examination of Atmospherics as each programmatic concern is addressed. Each of the following buildings is exemplary of a diverse use of Atmospheric Architecture in this way; however, each stands as an individual nevertheless.
