Book review Living well - source of living ideas

OTYPE=R : chailletcompleet.txt : 00353 | The booklet Woon wel - bron van woonideeën, published by St. Propaganda Woninginrichting 1964, is, according to Nicolaï-Chaillet, an appetizing and lucid read. However, she hardly discusses it but uses it as an occasion to once again showcase her own views. She stumbles over a few critical remarks about "functional living," calling it a "lack of thinking hygiene. For her, functional living is the basis of living, a means incomparable to notions such as coziness, warmth, etc. She denounces the flight into the past in the home with antiques and an excess of textiles and points out the importance of objective, honest information that does not cater to this 'mass neurosis.
