The Perfect Home (Part 1/3) [4/5]

The Perfect Home is a television series of three 42 minute episodes commissioned for Channel 4 based on the book The Architecture of Happiness by Alain de Botton which first aired in 2006

In the programmes, Alain de Botton explored the importance of innovative architecture for homes. He offered criticism of modern developments that build in an idealized fake heritage style, which he referred to as pastiche, often referring back to the example of Great Notley Garden Village near Braintree, Essex.

modern architecture : 7:54-8:21 , sounds like description of moorish architecture, i mean really look at alhambra, or moroccan riads, without those industrial feeling of course.
