Bookshop by Uro
Melbourne Design Week: Thinking Space Book Launch
Join author Leon van Schaik at Bookshop by Uro for a reading from his new book Thinking Space – a celebration of the art, poetry and philosophy of inhabitation, and its power to change our understanding of the world.
A journey through the history of the author’s own library (a collection gathered and refined over decades of teaching and thinking about place, space and architecture), the book reveals some of his most prized texts, the often deeply personal relationships they represent, and their influence on him as conceptual touchstones.
