Jacques Ferrier has developed a highly individual approach to architecture, rejecting the strictly formalist approach of the MOderni sts and instead embracing technology to improve the relationship between people and their environment. Central to Ferrier's work is the idea of the sensual city- a desire that all buildings should respond and contribute to the sensory experiences that make us huma n.This is the first major study of one of France's most original- and thoughtful- contemporary architects.
