Abstract:
This thesis explores the connection between empathy, aesthetics, and architecture, focusing on the case study of Libeskind’s Jewish Museum in Berlin. The concept of empathy is fundamental to understand human experiences, emotions, and the ability to relate to others. Architecture, as an art form, has the potential to evoke empathetic responses and shape the way in which individuals interact with each other and perceive their surroundings. The renowned architectural project of the Jewish Museum, in Berlin, serves as an exemplary case study thanks to its emphasis on empathetic design principles. This research aims to investigate how the incorporation of empathy in architectural design impacts aesthetics and influences human experiences within the built environment.
