Seductive building creates enrichment and invitation for exploration. In my experience working with architectural design, many projects lack choreography. This thesis intends to forge a language of seduction. The goals are to create literacy and detect narratives in architecture. Reflecting on my previous experiences in architecture served as the basis for my research. In forging a new language, the goal is to create a new method of analysis. As I probed further into my memories and experiences, a correlation became clear. I found myself seduced by specific motifs in architecture. I invite the reader to see the experiences as described. With this thesis, I hope for readers to analyse building with a fluency in this language. In seeing these elements, readers will understand and desire seduction in architecture with their built environment.enSprezzaturaseductionstripteaseenticingarchitecturememoryhistorystyleplayplayingplayfulgracedelightqualitativequalityspacelightsensessensitivitymazeveilslitrevealcentrefoldcenterfoldportraitkissalluretraveltravel journalchoreographyperformancecuratedchoreographederoticeroticismpersonificationembodySprezzaturaMaster Thesis
