Witold Rybczynski takes us on an extraordinary odyssey as he tells the story of designing and building his own house. His project began as a workshed, but through a series of ';happy accidents,' the structure gradually evolved into a full-fledged house.In tracing this evolution, he touches on matters both theoretical and practical, writing on such diverse topics as the ritualistic origins of the elements of classical architecture and the connections between dress and habitation. He discusses feng-shui and considers the theories of such architects as Palladio, Le Corbusier, and Frank Lloyd Wright.An eloquent examination of the links between being and building, The Most Beautiful House in the World offers insights into the joys of ';installing ourselves in a place, of establishing a spot where it would be safe to dream.'
