Overview
- First book to establish a correlation between architectural theory and the biosemiotic project
- Illustrates how signs may be understood as forces that inform and direct an organism’s engagement with its environment using Jakob von Uexküll’s (1864 - 1944) sign oriented notion of space
- Sets out to establish a framework for an architectural-biosemiotic paradigm that puts biosemiotic theory at the heart of building an environment that supports (and benefits) human, organismic, and spatial intelligence
Part of the book series: Biosemiotics (BSEM, volume 27)
