As I read this book, I was continually telling people about what I just read. It was fascinating to think about the components of joyful things and why it is that we find joy in them. It was whimsical, insightful, and certainly helpful for creating more joyful environments and experiences.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. As a designer, the rich visuals and jealousy-inducing research trips Ingrid describes were a joy to read. I don't think it's rocket science; children are intuitively joyful, so most of us probably just lost that intuition somewhere. But it was fascinating to see someone think so deeply about the aesthetics of joy, then find and describe model examples of each.
I enjoyed this book it was uplifting, but I didn't find anything that rocked my world or changed things for me very much. It is well researched and interesting.
