 Form, Space, & Order and A Visual Dictionary December 20, 2008
A great reference book along with:
A Visual Dictionary of Architecture
These two books are sort of the Elements and Principles for architecture, your tools and the manual of how to use them.
Architecture:Form,Space,&Order is more instructional and covers architecture principals in the real world- The way geography and light affect architecture.
Architecture:A Visual Dictionary is more about specific terms and elements- What types of masonry and arches look like.
The interactive CD would be great for kids, or someone with patience who wants to know what's covered in the book. There are not reference images or anything on the disk other than the Flash Player files. It is not like a PDF version of the book, or a collection of images from the book. No promises were made, and it's a good resource beyond many books, so I have no complaints.
Good book
Great book with great insight. September 30, 2008
I've had this book for a while now. It should be a staple for any young, budding architect and the principles contained within are examples of what make architecture different from engineering.
Great book by a great author.
