Wearable ArchitectureWearing clothing means putting a barrier between our body and the
outside world. The primary function of both clothing and buildings has always been to provide the body with shelter and protection (Miles, 2008) but also from others' sight. At the same time wearing particular kind of clothing shows the exterior world who we are or, what kind of person we want other people to think we are. It expresses in what kind of mood we are or to what kind of “group” we belong. The architecture is able to change our mood; it's able to make us feel melancholic or ebullient, energetic or relaxed.
