Setting out from the assumption that the design of every single room in a house is based on a physical function: one place to lie the body down to rest, another to take in food, a third to step into a tub to bath, Bernard Rudofsky believed architecture served to stimulate the senses and refine everyday culture. The rich visual material conveys his philosophy: �I believe that sensory pleasure should take precedence over intellectual pleasure in art and architecture.�
