Abstract
In this short essay I discuss the relationship between the body and tectonic surroundings, particularly settings generated by the imprint of an inhabiting subject as it projects into the environs. Such a debate is contingent on both traditional and modernist orthodoxies of western architecture, particularly as they attempt to distinguish between surface effects emanating from a subject and those imposed by tectonic condition. My concern is to discuss the imprint of the body in its environs as a form of projected evolution, a term borrowed from the philosopher Gerald Heard, but also as a means of understanding how interior space can bear the imprint of an inhabiting body, a body that leaves traces.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
