Summary:
Our taste buds are a powerful way for humans to know beauty and experience beautiful things. In Taste, Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben takes a close look at why the sense of taste has not historically been appreciated as a means to know and experience pleasure or why it has always been considered inferior to actual theoretical knowledge.

Le premier livre d’une collection qui vous emmène à travers l’Europe et vous aide à choisir un séjour de qualité, avec des critères hors du commun : la rencontre de l'architecture et du design, avec la qualité de l'accueil, de la table, et le souci du bien être. Plus qu’un répertoire de lieux de rêve, c’est une réflexion sur une nouvelle conception de l’hôtellerie : comment l’architecture peut cadrer le paysage, quels détails architecturaux et quels matériaux nous procurent des sensations inoubliables, et un focus sur les gens qui ont pour passion de s’occuper de nous. Nous espérons qu’elle incitera une nouvelle génération d’hôteliers à sortir des stéréotypes de l’hôtellerie de luxe classique.

Summary:
Les couleurs ont toujours fasciné les hommes. Cependant, les préférences en la matière sont très personnelles d'autant plus que les couleurs ont des impacts différents dont il faut tenir compte pour la façade d'une habitation et dans la décoration intérieure: en effet, le noir structure et définit l'espace, le marron donne une sensation d'intimité et de naturel, le rouge et l'orange forment des contrastes vivants et le blanc, tout en évoquand la pureté, peut aussi bien se montrer discret qu'éblouissant. S'appuyant sur de nombreuses photos, plans et coupes, ce livre montre comment les grands architectes et cabinets d'architectes utilisent la couleur pour souligner le caractère d'un bâtiment.
