Buildings fulfil the roles that we assign to them: as meeting places, for administration of public affairs, for capitalism, as venues for entertainment, as accommodation, as symbols. We all think of certain spaces as ’special places’ and see them differently from any other observer. The first house we remember living in, the place we used to go when we were sad, the first tree we climbed, a best friend’s bedroom, the turning off the main road that meant we were committed to school for the day.
