This blog takes as its title a revision of Le Corbusier's dictum of a house as 'a machine for living' (Towards a New Architecture, 1931), but instead of being informed by purely functional requirements, acknowledges the need for something more 'spatial'.

Minor name clash disaster! It seems I was not the first witty architect to come up with the title 'A Sculpture for Living', there is a development proposal for Astor Pl in New York that uses it as a subtitle: www.astorplacenyc.com
Thankfully, its a bit of a stinker, so we're unlikely to be mistaken with it.
