It is very difficult for a historical construction to remain valid if there are no emotions between the owner and the building.
I'm definitely with you about what you said here @jlufer. This rings true since man started constructing buildings a long time ago. In fact, if historical buildings don't convey positive emotions for people, then what's the use of designing them in the first place? There's more to it than meets the eye than just creating architecture for commercial purposes, isn't it? Many thanks for this great publication!
