We interpret the following ideas or theories as relevant to the experience of intimacy.
A discussion on the significance of this research will follow in Phase II.
The present book continues the search for a concrete understanding of the environment
"...search for a concrete understanding of the environment...The concept of existential space is here devided i the complementary terms "space" and "character", in aqccordance with the basic psychic functions "orientation" and "identification".

Sense of Space
The senses operate at different distances from the body
An understanding of this principle is critical to any
proposal dealing with intimacy.

Passillion (link is in French)
Based on the theme of passion, this poetic project attempts to address the meeting, marriage and separation of a French art teacher (the client) and her late husband. The follie, as the function describes, is located on the client’s property in Giverny, France. Situated in the woods but overlooking an expansive hay field, the project responds to certain conditions of intimacy that are embedded in our subconscious.
This one small project actually embodies many examples from Alexander’s Pattern Language, including: [vertical] intimacy gradient, entrance room, a room of one’s own, and hierarchy of open space (referring to the siting).
