Atmosphere is the sensorial quality of space and it can be achieved when we imagine oneself in the space to be designed(Zumthor P.2006).

Roethke employs diction by using words that literally mean to physically grab onto something, but also apply to wanting to remember and retain a memory or feeling of something nonpalpable. In addition, he uses imagery beautifully, especially the five senses and metaphors, to create an image of perfection and wistfulness, which is often what nostalgia is.
