"What we need is not a new way of technology but a new way of living ", that is the subtitle of one of Rudofsky's last works. Starting out from the assumption that the design of every single room in a house is based on a physical function: one place to lie the body down to rest, another to take in food, a third to step into a tub to bath, Rudofsky believed architecture served to stimulate the senses and refine quotidian culture.
