Can circles make us better people? Do we feel better? Do we think clearer? Some say yes, the power of architecture can change you. You can bet Brunelleschi thought so, and convinced the Pazzi family when this was designed in the 15th century. Kenneth Clark in his video on Renaissance art calls it art that makes us more "human". ...more capable of realizing our powers as complete moral and intellectual beings. I like the way that sounds and I like the way this looked. Can you live in great art? (probably for a little while...then you have to get back to work.
